Aaron and Curtis and Betty Mae,
Judy and Janice and Jimmy Ray,
Childhood companions from our
congregation?
Or were they just figments of
imagination?
Names from the past, from a youth
thought forgotten.
Memories stolen, some fresh, others
rotten.
Laughing and playing...
Running and fighting...
Learning our 'rithmatic,
Where are they now?
Are they living or buried?
Did they switch off the airwaves
Or just change the station?
Were they real?
Did I touch them?
Did they touch me back?
Or were they just figments of imagination?
