My mind is an eyesore

a trash heap
a rubbish pile

a collection
of all the thoughts
I’ve collected over
sixty years

you plod about
some
and after a time
It begins to feel
like hoarding

your partner dead
these 5 years from
unspeakable cancer

women

loved and lost
abandoned

or
swirling off
like roadside dust

that night in Florida
turning 18

drunk and passed out
under the table

wadded up
like dirty laundry
praying for death

all the dogs
you loved and lost

your first kiss
at 13

making love on
a mossy bank
with Dacia

her meaty breasts
soft as ripened
mangoes

time doesn’t care
what I collect or
discard

treasure or
abhorred

after a while
it all just seems
to run together
like soup

there ought to be
more I think

ravens
lillies

a night with full moons
and southern winds
when any damn thing
you wished

was so close

you could taste it

Very thoughtful, mature perspective. I find that the older I get, the more I cherish experiences from the past that, at the time, I didn’t pay enough attention to. It feels like life has been a huge meal with an endless variety if dishes, but I’m only now beginning to digest; only now am I beginning to let them nourish me in ways I was unaware of in my youth.
