yes, it's true, I
timestamp each script,
The time the day the year, the moment and where, the location's criticality, para-Mount!
return to your poem, return to that place, remember recapture retain,
regain!
The source, the emotional contagion, rage of sadness, humility of sweetness, the loss of loss, insight to the inside,
inside the insight,
recapture and regain,
re-attain!
sift the flower of that past emotion,
re~fresh it as if it was a newborn,
with life extant extended,
fully ahead, relive it as
anew...
This is why we write poetry,
to code ourselves, and then upon rereading, decode ourselves once more!
this is why we read poetry;
to decode, replace refresh neverending reimagining
This is how we store our memories,
This is how we wet our face replenish and re~pour our recycled tears, refresh our bodies,
souls and mind,
and perhaps, even regain the perspective that time like a river,
is forever eroding our memory
on the margin, like rocks in the stream, worn down to pebbles...
This is your re~gained!
