Images by Terry Olynik
Over the crawl of decades,
Your image has gently faded,
Perhaps mercifully from my mind.
Your taking when you left,
Of every single photographic image,
Furthers the diminution of my remembrance.
I suppose if the need be,
Should my memory need a jog,
I could consult the composite police sketches.
