in my card album
I do not recognise many-
collected where?
collecting junk
has become a past-time-
what else should I do?
'do something'
my minds tells me-
I tear up pages
blank pages
contain my whole life-
like that graffiti
graffiti art
was a way with me-
you were jealous
jealousy got you
nowhere, but broke us-
did you ever care?
in that card album
I do not recognise many-
I throw away yours
Bubbles break and disappear as they appear. Sometime some people are like that. Good piece.
ReplyDeleteI love the way you associated this with bubbles.

ReplyDeletegood one.. it flowed with ease..

What to keep and what to throw away. Quite a dilemma.
ReplyDeleteJourney to...
When in doubt, take a photo :) beautifully written!
ReplyDeleteI love how you wrapped the narrative back around, then gave it a twist. Really love this part:
ReplyDelete'jealousy got you
nowhere, but broke us-
did you ever care?'
But you didn't throw mine away, did you?
ReplyDeleteSounds like green bubbles to me. Love it!!
ReplyDeleteVery well done! I liked the flow...
ReplyDeleteNeat analogy with the bubbles. I like this one Guatami.
ReplyDeletegood !! some people deserve to be thrown !
ReplyDeletewhy keep those who won't keep you? I like it.
ReplyDeleteI love the way you paint a picture of someone going through a card album! I could see every moment of it and feel the emotion.
ReplyDeleteAnd I also like the way you constructed this by using the last word of one paragraph to begin the next. Very cool!
