Three times the charm, your reputation supersedes you
Opening a book wide open so much the spine started to crack
Pages trembling and cracking from age
But I know you touched these pages, I can sense your history, your legacy, your DNA
I feel and sense time wrapping and warping from your years to mine
I feel the air change and tense as time folds over like a crashing wave
This was destiny, I hear you say
I look up to rain on window, cracked memory of a forest from so long ago I can’t even begin
My recollection is vivid then dull then empty
Perhaps
..this memory was a story I read
.. a page in your book
…a time you read it out loud
Perhaps
..your DNA enters mine
…your legacy entwines with mine
… future vs past vs future vs now
I have to close this book
I’m sorry but it’s just for now
I put a bookmark in there to remind me, I used an old ticket
Something to jog my memory when I have none
Something to hold on to when my mind becomes so fierce and fiery +dragonlike
I don’t know how many more years
