random access memories
black and white pictures
a shoebox of old photos
moments saved by the old folks
found on the closet floor
color negatives plastic strips
too many snapshots printed
boxes thrown in the trash unopened
colors faded to green and red
digital images two trillions a year
impossible to read or comprehend
disappear when power or devices darken
lost and search again in the clouds
