polaroid(Arnold Melleby, 10.03.2020)

the camp fire burned out, alright

as did most of the ones around it

while it still burned


lessons learned

but, I don`t know

how to ajust 

or who to trust


polaroid

pictures blurred over time

a shot of novocaine

a vague memory

could it be

polaroid


barefoot in the snow

on a steamy July morning

a seven day binge

that no one wrote home about

snorting up a storm

in the calmest weather

the world has ever seen

learning how to spell paranoia

in capital letters

over and over again


polaroid

pictures blurred over time

a shot of novocaine

a vague memory

could it be

polaroid


coming back

a picture at the time

hangin` loose

at the same spots

where we used

to walk the line

this time

without the fine


polaroid

pictures blurred over time

a shot of novocaine

a vague memory

could it be

polaroid
