Love Letters to Forgotten Things

Brian Easterling

Love Letters to Forgotten Things is a series of lyrical reflections, strange monologues, and tender tributes to the lost and nearly-lost moments of our shared past. It"s for the things we remember quietly, in car rides and in grocery store aisles. The moments we thought no one else had held onto—but did.We write to the scuffed plastic of Trapper Keepers. To the last golden hour of summer vacation. To the sound of a local DJ’s voice echoing through a putt-putt golf course at 10 p.m. on a Tuesday. To

society & culture personal journals
