FAMILY PHOTOS
Are these old intruders really our history?
Black and white moments are stuck here at random.
Notes on the back - ‘52, London -
Only deepen the obsolete mystery.
Smiling happily – though without a name
That anyone still alive would remember -
Less classified now than insects in amber,
They might have been important at the time.
