"memory takes a lot of poetic license. it omits some details; others are exaggerated, according to the emotional value of the articles it touches, for memory is seated predominantly in the heart." :tennessee williams, "the glass menagerie"

“The Comforts of Home”
For Nathaniel

When I came down from Toccoa
Saw the rising sun
Saw flocks of clouds like mourning doves
Rising east of Royston
Saw the towns of Georgia
Sleeping along the way
Saw spreading trees in Nunez
You made it out ok

Five hours in Dad’s back seat
A sunrise and a prayer
Eighteen months of penance
And you were almost there
Tried not to cry at your ceremony
When I heard “second grace”
Tried to pay attention
And read the look on your face

The sun was high and hazy
The shadows getting long
We stopped for gas in Milledgeville
You said "There's nothing wrong"
Later made progress and backslid
Later got really pissed
It was the comforts of home
You said you’d mostly missed

Starflyer 59 and postmodern hermeneutics:

Hey man, did ya
Write that for me?
It seems like it, it spoke to me
You made it up, you made it up, you made it up, you make it up

Can I rely?
Can I?
In the twinkling of an eye
Of an eye
We’ll rise…
