Christmas poem – Rural Oklahoma Museum of Poetry

Christmas at Rose, Oklahoma

In old photos, you are grainy

Memoirs 010 — Kelly, Pam, Shaun, 1973 (?)

As the chicken shed wood,

Groovy in the rotting way,

Alive to what will be,

And not decay or was,

Not the illuminated past,

But next and next and next.

–Shaun Perkins
