Misty Eyes (from the Oblivion series)
-July 6, 2013

I recognize my shoes and hands
but my surroundings are unfamiliar.
I cannot retrace in the mud.
I rub my hands across the soles of my shoes.
Wiping off yesterday’s sand.
I want to believe this’s only a momentary pause.
Am I trapped in a moment of time
or reminiscing?
I’m trying to look ahead
but my eyes are too misty.
