Neither Here Nor There Comments

What a fascinating absurdist sort of write. Reminds me of the script of a Pinter play, where all the characters talk at cross purposes and there is no actual communication. It also seems to have something to do with dementia - a husband and wife, or brother and sister, perhaps? I enjoyed the filmic nostalgic touches of East of Eden, Abbott and Costello, On the Beach as well - as those more intimate reminiscences about things closer to home. My Jerry has written some fabulous film scripts in a similar vein. Like him, you have a great grasp of dialogue. Excellent poem. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

I like this poem. Our aging mind free verses looking for memories to provide a foundation for the present. But indeed, the events and at least most of the characters 'are gone'. Jim
