Receipts and Outgoings.

Documents from another era.
Almost another lifetime it feels
Falling into my hands,
In a winter clean up and out mood
Bank statements, notebooks, diaries.
Invoices. Receipts.
All accounted for a long time ago.

Making room for more documentation.
A more
Resilient narrative.
Filing up now into lever arches.
Squished into chapters.
Quietly referring to each other.
Friendly paper in a box.
The lid fits neatly.
