Simplicity
Reducing clutter.
Time to relax.
Life is uncomplicated.
Living within my means.
Lots of love and happiness.
Travelling.
Tired.
Overworking, scraping the bottom.
To much clutter.
Chronically fatigued.
Overthinking.
Lack of love.
Exhaustion.

B. A. Durham’s False Memories blends dream and reality in a seamless mix. As his father, afflicted by Alzheimer’s, fades away, the narrator is haunted by a dream that may be a memory, returning to him insistently. The piece is full of wonderful detail (the father touching his lip where once there was a mustache, “but now he is clean-shaven—he has been for years” — and moving in revealing the complexities of a family’s life. A worthy winner which shows the power of dreams to influence us.

“ Travelling. Tired.” seems to be the middle of this poem, and I wonder if this is what causes the shift in the speaker’s life and mood. Very relatable to anyone who has felt burnt out or alone. Good luck in the challenge😊
