memorize
by rote,
what you wrote,
take a note to,
jog the mind,
the mind,
a minefield
or is it yours?
don't bother
to memorize
anything, anymore,
evermore (there is he raven, again)
evermore,
the world is at
the disposal of
your opposable
thumbs, fabulous phablets,
mephone, myphone and iphone,
costs more time
to memorize,
but what a
surprise when it will
be gone,
as someone will
find out how to pull the plug.
how to pull the plug,
evermore
evermore (what is he raven about this
time?)
Trust your mind,
until you are too old to
remember when you
started forgetting,
that you never smoked,
but today would be
a good day to smoke a
cigar, and between,
distasteful puffs and the exhaled
cloud, is a fog to the mosquitoes
of spring, you spout scripture,
from the mind - mouth connection,
while expectantly looking up heaven
word for direction, because, still my
beating heart there is faith, in your memory,
not in your fingertips trying to
reach out and under
stand,
technology.
now if I could remind myself to memorize more often...aw forget about it.
