160 - The View


Backward views 
All remembered
Through distorted lenses:
Magnified or diminished
By varying degrees.

Looking forward,
Conscious of
That creeping haze: 
Our only escape. 
 
Sunday 160 is a creation of Monkey Man. If you’d like to participate or check out other 160s visit him here!

true that...the good old days are colored bright...the hard times lose their sting and reality is a whole lot worse than it really is...smiles.

Time has a way of distorting life. Too true.

I firmly believe that all of my memories are only a part of the actual experience. The ghosts of our past can truly haunt us.

Lovely 160!
