scrawled
across boundaries. Through
the dark recesses of this forgetful
town. Doused in the piss and
vinegar of generations, long since
grown, long since inured to compassion:
long since open to opinion.
leave your own imprint.
It can be simple and concise: a
name neatly carved in a hard-
topped counter; a symbol of
your youthful excess. Or complex:
legacy left in
work completed; in differences
made. In high-achievement.
where I'm from,
we leave ourselves behind
in forensic evidence.
You'll find my hair, on pillows
and my secretions on the sheets.
depending on your attitude, you'll
recognise me as the hero
I am.
