smears

Ahhh to be young.

I remember being naked,
covered in blood, and fighting the cops.

Wandering the streets
dirty, drunk, in poverty,
looking for a new life
in each moment of my living

Years ago
these things…

I recall them now,
seeing them in my mind’s eye
as I’m doing the things
I do today.

All I was,
all I’ve ever been,
everything I have ever done,
has become smeared memories,
like paints against canvas.

I blink.
It’s all gone.
