Shakespeare's Monkeys

Infinite Monkeys. Infinite Typewriters.

More in Poetry

years hence

years hence

when age frays memory,
last year last month last
week uncertain each other
in chemical confusion
and synapse misfire.

the heart retreats deep
and fastens stories
real in repetition,
singular and simple.

little lights of promise
sure and steady
in strange surroundings.

Tracey - on Oct. 8 2007

A realistic view of aging that isn't utterly hopeless; nice, and most welcome to this reader.
