. . . even now when (he tried) to
remember . . . the darkness does not lift but becomes yet heavier as (he
thought) how little we can hold in mind, how everything is constantly lapsing
into oblivion with every extinguished life, how the world is, as it were,
draining itself, in that history of countless places and objects which
themselves have no power of memory is never heard, never described or passed
on. (WG Sebald Austerlitz, pg14)
. . . when he tried to remember
. . . no power
of memory
he could remember . . . deeper than
most he was
horrified at the thought of no power of memory
then he paused
he thought maybe their memory wasnt as we
know it or could imagine
a hammer a knife a hand axe used to kill
might rememberare stained despite evidence washed off of it
they move inside their confines to make
themselves more readily at hand and
experienced freed of inhibition they strike a chord in their handler soothe
them very subtly
instruct them to
quench their simmering
blind lust
STRIKE
Excalibur
weapons(and places) gain
power theyre remembered
they remember How and exert themselvesthey
tempt . . . seduce
. . . are Experienced
even if they
cant recall
Experience is tangible pliable
Experience is tangible pliable
Xperience begs Memory to replace or ease
memory
the Stain deepens
the ball peen hammers head and handle
purples the butcher knifes blade glintshoned keen the war hatchets edge grows
more pitted hewing pits it
the Stains deepen
memory or whatever you want to call it persists
