Afterglow
Imbricated clouds cloaks blasted sunset
Brings memories of yesteryears
Glorious past flashes back on set
Gives my first vision, tears
Kids me, mum’s caring
A sharp man, dad’s tutoring
‘Til college parent’s whoring
Wizard I become you bet
I’d like to see memoirs of my happy but failed marriage,
I’d like to be in a green park pushing my kid’s carriage,
Plangent shout, laughter I’d like to hear,
I’d like to watch dad and mum loving feeling dear,
I’d like to see my friends dancing drinking beer’
I’d like to see my wife’s pinchbeck smiling face,
In her wedding gown in lace
And when the juju sunset comes,
The eccentric afterglow welcomes
These fondly reveries in life is all done
Cannot be redux nor undone
