The Wednesday Poem #22 - Fog

Fog 

Rolling back to reveal my face
I'm standing in the marketplace
Where memories when lost or old 
can be exchanged and bought and sold

The fog is clearing to reveal 
The last ten years, I just can feel
I see them now displayed in glow
Memories of ten years ago

Rolling back to reveal the truth 
to show my life from its roots
my memories all disappear
The mindless blank is what I fear
