Memories are Old Bones

 
Memories are old bones
stark and white
time-lost dinosaurs
not really there
just an empty void
shaped like what was
Pompei people fossilized
dusty in my mind
a chalk outline resemblance
of an old colourless past
feature and flesh filled in
                                 by what is
sepia tone static
 
inflexible,
              unchangeable,
                                   dangerously defining
 

One thought on “Memories are Old Bones
