Remember?
Forget.
…all right?
You bet!
Ask again?
… the same.
Illusions?
… no pain.
When?
A child's refrain.
What is that?
A time to recall?
Shadows of candlelight?
Footsteps in a hall?!
A moonless night?!
Raindrops in flight?!
The tapping of rain?
Sounds… of the gutters and drains?!
Come on, now, tell me;
What do you recall?
Nothing!
Nothing at all.
What…; What’s that;
Can you hear the mouse?
Is the mouse in the house?
She’s snapped
… in the trap!
Does she live?
Or,… does she die?
She’s safe;
She’s under a glass.
She must not talk, can’t say
… of what’s gone to past.
Why not?
What will it do?
A final snap;
I’m telling you!
One more time;
Then, we will be through
Recall that time;
What’s happening to you?
Can’t you tell?
Look, and see…
My smiling face;
I‘m still free?!
Nothing!
Nothing at all;
Nothing took place.
Nothing to me?!
Doc?
Look at the time!?
It’s time …
We’re all through!
Till, next week;
Thanks Doc
I’ll be seeing you!
