We blink
The maroon
Hours away,
Wallowing in
Shared disbelief,
Slowly running
Out of
Storage space
By adding
Untruths to
Old memories
Which were
Made when
Things were
Not this blue.

Yes, we add the now to the then and alter past realities. Why not just live in the now? I guess it’s difficult. A wonderful thought to dwell on. 🙂
