nostalgia you can't live by

dip and delve
a future past
times you never lived
ring through your heart
moments you could never feel
preservation
history
life on repeat

if you dive in deep
artifacts of past
create nostalgia
for what you lack

a summer night
nineteen seventy three
all windows down
stereo screams
as four wheels roll
"Rebel, Rebel" David Bowie sings
the joint is passed
the crowd is pleased
the spirit of the seventies
passed down to millennia
dazed and confused
they taught us well
as the wind blows sweetly in my hair
my father's memories blend as one
