The only
Time I seem to
Be hazy, an evaporating ocean of
Memories has been under seizures, but now I
Even remember
Them like
A full moon over
Cornfields growing from the plains of
Colorado after a wet spring and a hot
June rising
We breathed
Together in the emergency
Room waiting for a reason that my
Mind blew away for minutes, an electrical storm
Electric haze.
It lasts
A child’s summer day
When sleep begins just as the
Moon slips behind the dark purple clouds to
See stars
I remember
Those nights in his
Lap waiting for fireworks and sparklers
Better than I remember yesterday’s seizure
It is my hypocampus firing off a blown
Processing unit.
