Verse: Postcard

(Originally posted on Facebook in March 2008)

I send
greetings to you
whoever
wherever you are
from this point
in my life that
I'll always recall
with fondness
but never return to again
no matter how hard
I might try
they say sometimes
you have to travel
far from everything
you know
to find your way home
Yet I have never
been anywhere but home
here yet not here
always arriving
never quite there
or anywhere
Gripped by a vague sensation
of displacement
of alienation
like I misplaced my life
somewhere
among my souvenirs
