They say you shouldn’t live in the past.
“Be present in the here and now.”
But the older I get,
the more past there is.
It keeps piling up.
And, of course, that’s the only place
I can go to visit
some of my favorite people.

A favorite photo of my father,
Mr. “It’s five o’clock somewhere.”
Not a big drinker, don’t mean
to give that impression.
But he liked his Scotch.
