calendar days

faded calender days
devoured by life

knowing, disables
consuming all

reluctant lessons
craving to erase

this road side attraction
where days are lost

abandoned
ignored and deserted

a barren multi-layered highway
glistening with heavy tears

muddy red dirt
smudging what once was

I am everywhere and nowhere
I am everything and nothing

smudging what once was... trying to do this and not quite getting it right.

finding i am nowhere.

you really have captured the mindset.

Wow. This one really makes me read and re-read your words (and look at the image). So concise, yet so much said.

I love it! especially "devoured by life" so simple, yet so heavy.
