- Forgotten Not Gone
[01] you find you are starting to lose things
[02] they usually show up
[03] under the bed, in the back of the closet, in the middle of a sentence
[04] but there's no way for telling when or where they might return
[05] for a while this is okay - and then it is not
[06] sometimes you catch a glimpse of magnetic forces unravelling molecular chords
[07] a right show left out
[08] dangling participles waiting to be picked up
[09] cell phones and coffee cups vibrating into alarming new forms
[10] sometimes they cajole you to follow along but then who knows
[11] these things might turn over and swallow you up whole
[12] so that's when you decide to paint your nails
40 years in the making !
