Paint amputates from rusted metal coils,
as limber weeds reach for absent limbs.
Remembrance twines in beaming rays.
Squeaky swings hum their howling tune
as the wind lingers on bruised wood.
It has been some time since I have been here.
Sweet memories now swallow me in blue analects.
Squeaky swings and tall grass,
the longest shadows ever cast.
