Nostalgia

Phases of heartbreak

Nostalgia montages

Don't believe the liar.

Take the scissors

And the glue

Stab hope in the vagina.

Cut the ties,

Montage the bad

Next to the good

And admire.

Take it all in

Laugh and cry

The tide will pass.

For creative expression

Say it in five words,

a hundred

or a thousand.

What difference does it make?

Is wordcount the judge

of poetry that is

True or Fake?

Truth coils

in mysterious ways.

Could be contained

in a book of a million page

or it might just shine through

in a simple phrase.

This poem stands

to hold the place

for creative expression.
