first impressions run
deep – we keep remembering
one another just
as we were and not as we

a lens through which we develop
surface impressions –
it takes lifting the roof, tearing
down walls to gain something deeper

some impressions
some impressions
are more
binding – careful,
don’t get
trapped, and i

easily snap, be broken

hand over hand over hand
your lit face swimming closer

how you
how you
see me

years later, some
years later, some
details are crystal
clear, even if the
larger impressions have

will disappear, but perhaps
the gold, perhaps your
fingers will be
a reminder
