new neurons bump
into older neurons,
triggering mental and
muscular gymnastics,
stumbling across
the language of liszt’s
la campanella,
accepting that
a mountain is taller

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

i am twenty-three
galaxies away from finding
you – so vast, and yet,

maybe we shouldn’t
rule out that there are
new molecular
connections here, a
dendritic extension

supplementary
information transmission

and day 578, more
filters through, i

we are going
when we take
one another’s hand

between this bite and
the next, an unfathomable
number of synapses
and you, caught
in the dendrites,
encoding, retrieving,
encoding, retrieving

our skin is wired
at the edge of

flight, every
cell is an
antenna, waiting

since memories are
since memories are
formed, then rebuilt
each time they are
accessed, may next
year be easier, on the
anniversary of your
death, may our
neurons stop
passing along this
unbearable sadness
