yesterday’s memories spread wings,
day’s constellations

there are moments when
there are moments when
i forget – dicing onions,
eagle pose. there are
moments when i remember –
tadasana, making tea

to fade even as we are
capturing it – pen
to paper, experience
to memory – don’t hold on

perhaps months,
perhaps months,
years from now, these
days will become
foggy, it’s how our
minds insist on
playing games with
our hearts – now you see
me, now you don’t –
we have no choice as
witnesses, obligated
to make out every
fine detail in the
heightened haze

remember that year
remember that year
when we lost so
many… was the
joy ever worth
the long
aches afterwards?

these words
in their mouths
many times before
spitting them out.
they’re unswallowable
by any muscles
so the human spirit
keeps taking the bait

i fill these moments
i fill these moments
with sugar, enough sugar
to preserve them for
at least a decade, maybe
longer, long after we are dead
