11.11.23


he wokeup this morning remembering

not remembering a littlenot scraps bits pieces remembering everything  anything
remember vividly  

remember the smallest things


he remembered what he forgot

                                     the remembering painted his eyes with tears that wetted reconstituted magnified his memories anhe thought  this is how things came apart  he got caughtupsweptaway in vile moments terrible agitations dust an pollen shakenfree peppering salting copiously dusting over layering over concealing hiding   what  if he had pausedtook a moment  the things he could have recalled shared  could have broken the arms legs and necks of those harsh agitations                                                                         

Do you remember . . .

Remember when . . .

                           if only he paused  been able to be at one remove


this morning was not regret
                              there was so muchtoo much beauty
he was fortunate


this morning gently taught him that when things veer go askew he looked askance  to vividly bring a memory forward an share it
             as they can easily  subtly    be submerged
