Memories are expensive
spent on looking back
Unpaid moments lost in time
debts for what we lack
Overdue nostalgia
debiting supreme
Clouded statements left unrhymed
—mortgaging our dreams

A great write, dear Poet
thanks for inspiring this feeble poetic reply:
(to look back, to witness fact
thus
stay in foreshadowing's reprieve
assimilate, horizon within mirage
accumulate, surrealism's escape
and delay
reality's unwanted slap
of awareness, with it's jarring
effect
warping, that we want to treasure
most...)
Great hearing from you again, LB.
Thanks so much.
Kurt
