The Porcupine, Arm'd

Ruminations and Recreations

Remember?

Remember the late-night talks and
midnight scuffles; the sort that seemed
to make more sense three-hundred-
and-sixty-five mornings after?
 
Remember the sinking silence,
transferred optic fibers, making
steady progress in a spiral,
spinning to a distant point?
 
Remember the little boy with
little dreams, involving nothing more
than patience and the presence
of his effervescent queen?
 
But time has a curious trait, you see -
the ability to mar your memories
and construct an entirely
fictionalized version of reality.
After all, time only takes place
when we take it too far -
a reminder that we live in a world
where the last thing to pass
is the passing of that bastard star.
