Someday


by Carl Santoro


Someday I'll be
more than just
a face in a
shoebox sea
of photographs of me.

I'll be an old photograph
in somebody's photograph
album I'll be,
......remembered-
      folded, molded
      ripped and chipped,
......remembered-
      scratched, stained
      and fingerprinted
            and as in real life
            occasionally
            sneezed on.

Your brain will be
tickled by my image
and my photo
will become
a memory
dancing in your head-
singing, laughing, talking
and alive
with you
as you move
about
your
day.

Someday I'll be
more than just
a face in a
shoebox sea
of photographs of me.
