Poem

MEMORY

This cluttered mass that lingers in my thought
Directing me in purpose and in action
Houses every piece of knowledge I’ve been taught
In here resides my source of mental traction.
Arranged into a poignant disarray
This structure that is infinitely growing
Is solid, though indeed its edges fray
It’s nourished by the human ways of knowing.
This organ does not feed my lungs or heart
I’ve laid in it the layers of my life
From the instant that I had my earthly start
Until at last I meet with Death’s dark knife.
But I won’t be saddened when it has come undone,
For I won’t remember that I ever had one.
