when this is all
over, we will not try
to revive any
of it, not try

on origami shelves, multi-

the weight of this
reminder alone
gingerly shifts our

each minute like
they were loosening
petals with seconds

our memories are wrapped
in cushions of untruths. when
you say i recall, how much is it
a re-calling, a re-placement of
the conditions – the sounds,
the tastes, even that puncturing
aroma of sweet and savory,
the one that beckons bite me
