The damp remains here.
Memories swirl; images
retain what was there.
***
Unmistakable…
the air shifted, moved, split, and
transformed forever.
***
It was familiar,
a known yet unknown and known.
Time’s repetition.
***
Curves formed, eyes tracing–
soothing loveliness embraced…
soul remembering.
***
Unknowing cleavedness–
separate, emancipate–
deep impression left.
***
Smells, sounds, senses dance;
finger tips remember well
the now unknown known.
***
Seeking, searching…found;
Inside, outside, up and down found.
Sought, searched…can’t unfind.
***
Words like film play for
the eye of the mind–recall.
Can’t ever unsee them.
***
Thoughtless, pointless speech.
Words on my doorstep boxed neat.
Gift I’m forced to keep.
***
Careless utterance–
lacking any prethinking–
my kingdom leveled.
