Reminisce

Reminisce

C Derick Miller

5.25.21

The dotted line is occupied

The letter’s in the mail

Requesting stings from yesterday

Those photographs from Hell

Recorded pain and memories

I wished would go away

But keys to moving forward

Have revealed they’re here to stay

There’s no reason to go back there

There’s no reason to go dig

In that desert where I left them

When I walked on from that gig

But the future she is nosey

And the past my worthless whore

When the lights go down be seated

My life’s movie evermore
