Memory Cleanse

OH SHIT

Another fucking retrospective
nobody requested

It all seems so desperate
in that clingy sort of way

So let's not dredge up yesterday
any more than necessary

Perhaps use as a reference point
for future mistake prevention?

Anyway..

Think back..

Can we at least all agree
our past was not exactly
all that?

Nostalgia is a band aid remedy I guess
when the present is such a complete mess

No way these could possibly be
our "good old days" someday?

The best thing about remembrance
is our editing can be very selective

Invoking the healing powers of suppression

Time is a canvas that covers all wounds
