It is haunting to think of someone's former presence draining away. A house as container for dwindling memories is uncannily presented.

PoetrySoup 'you wrote such an outstanding poem, Clive, filled with mystery conveyed with some outstanding images. I loved 'faces trapped in the windows held in a mist.' There's a certainly metaphorical reference here that I really like. The title 'yesterpeople' was perfect.'

I put this poem on PoetrySoup, here's a comment "Faces trapped in windows" what a strong line is that! Conveys so much. I love the depth of this poem and how descriptive it is along with that last line which stands out for me. Truly! '
