This will be the last installment of "A Glimpse Within."

Made the jetty, looked for my
clothes. Weren't there, or
anywhere. I started walking;
naked, bleeding feet.
                But alive.
Small community here at
Intercoastal City, Shell
Morgan Dock. Kept on
walking into the community.
                Nothing to see.
Almost drowned back there.
Got me to thinking about
forever and yesterday.
I can remember yesterday
                You're pathetic.
My lost years were as baffling
to me as the Christchild's. An
Owl hooted from somewhere
alerting creatures I was
                 Like they cared.

This series has been haunting in it's images and tone, it has been difficult to watch you go through these. You do intense well my friend.

Hah! Lori, although I am now a very senior citizen, I remember like it was yesterday, my "intense" life that lasted decades, so it comes out in much of my poetry.

Thank you for sticking with me on this mini saga.
