she's lost
in a world passed
her father buried anew
and his house alive with the rot
of years

red apples
peeking through the hedgerow
blackberries

it gets harder
to write short poems
a life worth nothing
a relatively quick death
is too much to ask for

amalgamating hard drives
a residue of pictures
twenty years
most are corrupted
old memories fading
into unknown formats
photographs didn't do that

Her memory; corrupted like computer files
