caught in the flash photography,
flinch from the searing memory,
like a finger from the flame,
stumble blindly off to find,
the cold tap of forgetting.

Intrestingly, you have chosen my more um.. experimental poem, but I still like it, so I am glad you do too, :~}

I like it very much indeed! You have written a masterpiece, of something so common as looking old photographs ,that bring hurtful memories. keiko
