What she gave me

It was such a long time ago

she gave me a gift

I didn’t know what it meant

perhaps I still don’t

and yet

Time is a distant memory

and it was a very long time ago

but, so is now

and we have so little of it

looking back

I see I can fold time

and see her, but not see her

This memory thing we have

this prophetic voice inside us

tells us things we remember

and we use these things to prophesize our lives

all because of time

and our running out of it

and so we believe in something, ghostly

and so we trust in something, distant from our understanding

and so we live, not ourselves but our memories of time

and yet within us, knowledge exists

and so we listen … to the teachers

but are they the right

or the wrong

It was such a long time ago

is it any wonder our memories are corrupted
