RANDOM
it’s just when they
Fly in and out
Not just thoughts
Feelings places that
Itch and need to
Be scratched
A what was that noise
Probably the cat
And emotions
They can just snap
You back a few years
In an instant
They leave a stamp
On the present then
Flutter away leaving you
Covered in ink
It takes a few days
To wash off
At least it did
The last time
And the one before that
Memories different
Than thoughts
Memories are whole
And don’t change
And they come in strings
Strings of beaches
Strings of forests
Clouds strung together
Necklaces in the sky
Experiences are another
Crazy lot
I do stuff just for that
To form a carved in granite
Experience one that
Can’t be repeated
Or forgotten
They wait for me to
Get bored then suddenly
I’m skiing down that
Too steep slope
Trying to hold it together
Really scared
Good spirits
All of them
