it’s all there
page after page
phantom photo album
wrapped in
simple brown paper
delivered by the
post office
cracked broken window
gaze upon pages
dusty timeworn folder
lost paper memories
my grandfather’s face
eerily stares back
with a familiar expression

Sometimes it can be disquieting when we look like one of our relatives so much. Especially when they’ve reached death’s door and we are receiving their photos in the mail. Nice job. Have a nice day.
I would love to hear the story of the search for those memories. Or did they arrive unexpectedly?
oh i love the recall in this.. very intense imagery with the face of the grandfather appearing in the cracks… i love this.
Oh wow, this is great.
