I can't wax nostalgic
for penny candy stores
although I remember five and dimes
and I have encountered
rusty wheelbarrows
and enjoyed plums before main course
I'm left to fabricate my own myth
and find some meaning
in an upturned beer glass
and a single cannabis seed
sitting alone on a coffee table
Beer coasters boast my travels
but Neapolitan ice cream
is the only thing to lift my spirits
and I must look ahead
to plot out a new course.
I Miss Penny Candy
I also miss two for a penny candy. :D Nostalgia stuff like Old Mother Gray's Worm Medicine. - slc
It's sad that I remember some
It's sad that I remember some of this stuff but there you have it.
