When I Look At My Past

WHEN I LOOK AT MY PAST I see a stranger looking back at me As if haunted by bad decisions Children in the playground Spinning furiously on the merry-go-round Old ladies with stern looks Faces like Cabbage Patch dolls Where have I been all those lost years Wandering aimlessly in a sea of alcohol 18 September 2019 For the contest sponsored by Ironic Zink
