The marine imagery hypnotized me. It made me reflect on the fluidity of our past, whose ripples and waves unravel riches and shipwrecks, terrors and forgotten bliss. A profound meditation on past and memories, thank you.
And thank you for adding such a suave connotation for 'malware'!

Beautifully said, Martha. I too hold onto things from the past, whether positive memories or wretched. They are part of my history. Sometimes I find the courage to banish them, and sometimes the universe does it for me. Mementos from my first love that I dragged around for years eventually broke one by one. And I survived their breakage. But the memories are always with us. Good or bad, they make us who we are.

All the words we conjure up to hide from the past, to confront it, to banish it, to play with it – to endlessly have it chase us – and then we have a choice – love it and move on, or move on and partner with it.

Indeed a rich life Martha! Oh if it would only translate into $$’s!!
My head in my hands, I give it a shake. Multicolored marbles rattle music too loud to sing to. My aging body unable to sort or trash the clutter. Accumulated wisdom sees the words and celebrates. And maybe dance at some time with other partners.

A constructive one-eighty! The current instant our only rear time, the past still visits with reminders to build on.
