Abandoned Words

While cleaning up my hard drive, I found this reflection on the state of my journals. The entries seemed so random, so scattered, and although I said "will anyone care..." at that time I was wondering if even I did.

Abandoned Words

This journal
tantrums and reverses
fragments
there, here
in that book or this
Will anyone
care or puzzle
or merely glance,
then flip it
for more civilized fare?
