prose is architecture and the baroque age is over
― ernest hemingway

our lives are often too ornate?

keepsakes, that are intended to remind us.

of what?

of things, we once did, felt, saw, wanted?

what is a ‘keepsake’?

for whose sake?

what matters is what lies within.

and, often, those ‘keepsakes’ are just, well just

too

ornate?
