Wears on the night and colds the mind...

Wears on the night and colds the mind...

A Poem by Firestone Feinberg

b''h 
13 January 2014
Wears on the night and colds the mind...
As darkness spreads its wings
Over the city -- and none can find
The comfort that old things
Bring -- and you stand in the indigo
Air and think about how the years
Passed too quickly though time was slow -- 
You know again the reason for tears.

Hey David. You have such a way, in your poems, of honing in on the particulars of longing or sadness or stale-ness associated with depression, or the like. How nostalgia can become a roadblock, in a way, as we look back and wonder why we're unable to access or connect in the same ways we did before. Or whatever, I'm not sure how to express that exactly. I'll just say, when reading this I feel like I'm standing outside on my driveway on a summer evening looking at the few early stars and wondering how I got exactly to this spot, and if it's possible to find my way back. Hope you're doing well.
