Back at the beginning again - An empty room, a window The room - Disordered Forgotten The window and beyond - Reduced to a blur Though the Grime tinted patina Of desperation In this space Simple gestures Of light and shadow Suspend the Ghosts of memory Yet even the light is jealous of their permanence - See how it Caresses them With such a lovely way Of violence?

Those old photos...
Back at the beginning again - An empty room, a window The room - Disordered Forgotten The window and beyond - Reduced to a blur Though the Grime tinted patina Of desperation In this space Simple gestures Of light and shadow Suspend the Ghosts of memory Yet even the light is jealous of their permanence - See how it Caresses them With such a lovely way Of violence?
