There are different kinds of attics.

Tiny paper boxes filled with sweepings from the soul Bent and broken toys, never again will they be whole. left in clouds of shadows - not loved by anyone Forgotten melodies whose songs have all been sung Unwanted packages in corners without light Husks whose empty arms welcome the blooming night Whose attic this? This is the sword of truth... all the attics cluttered with those who have lost their youth

Reviews of "From the Attic"

Reviewed by Ronald Hull

Reviewed on December 14, 2018

We tend to have fewer attics these days but more rental storage units to abandon. I believe you're right, this is everyone's attic and could be a metaphor for our brains, where all this "stuff" going back to our childhood, remains.

All the more reason to write it down and get it posted before it is lost forever like a crashed hard drive without backup.

Attics are filled with treasures for exploration. Each item and each photo tells a story of a life we didn't know much about.
