Poem-A-Day Challenge: Day 9

Prompt: Write a poem about a memory.

NOT LIKE IT USED TO BE

Every job I’ve ever had,
I always seem to have just
missed the good old days.

STFU and GBTW.

2009 Poem-A-Day Challenge: The inimitable Robert Brewer — editor of Writer’s Market and Poet’s Market, and proprietor of the wonderful blog, Poetic Asides — is posting a daily prompt and I, along with numerous others, are commiting to write a poem inspired by that prompt.

Every. Day.
