People don't really remember, all the words
just the bits and pieces
Ya can't really memorize a book
with all it's bends, and creases
Snippets, fragments, and shards
in memory committed
Awakened by a chance listened word
and mentally, admitted
Who really keeps every line
of every story ever read
but, bring it to front each time
a certain word, is said
Keys for the locks
ones that, may trigger dreams
like a skull with ticking clocks
and what, that really means
