The Future of a Pixilated Past
Listen to poem:
The Future of a Pixilated Past
David J Walker
I see you in every page
Of the archived newspaper
That survived to tell our stories again
When the day and date is alive
and I look forward to
Greeting you revived
at a different stage of
The kaleidoscope ride that
Stops only when its time to get off
I see me in every page
Of the archived paper
Shake the page and the
Words create a
snow globe picture
Of me at a younger age
empty and hungry
for the future
Where we shall live forever
in a printed past captured
in pixilated pictures
