New England Memories

non-existent

new england memories

I was born there

but raised in the south

now I live in norway

a small seaside village -

son

...

son reminds me

of those memories

I never knew



[untitled]

lost days

almost two months

gone by

the days

and nights bleed together,

pass by quickly

late nights -

exhausted,

the sound

of snoring

lay awake

with thoughts

no work found

only those dreams

vivid, strange,

haunting

the streets

and sidewalks are wet

with melting snow

slush

dirty

[untitled]

second half of january

and on into february

thinking back, remembering

reminiscent

of four year old memories

winter in a foreign land

the hunt -

search for work

needing a job

hitting the streets,

pounding the pavement

once again

walking cold windy

dirty slush, snowy

ice and wet city streets

all with no luck

so far
