Cradled

in the iron rust belt

of forgotten memories

snapshot memories

of tunics and runes 

battle weary grandparents battered and scarred

Aunts and Uncles with 

Buick eyes

LeSabre suits of ccthonic misery

smiling and laughing

at a 6th birthday candles lit

color prints with deckled edges and the year and month 

printed on the border
