memories repeat . but we may not realize . that each time they change
something commonplace . taken for granted, was once . considered special
a leaf, fallen, rests as a memory to be of what had been, once
it’s not always clear . which memory is haunting . making decisions
what once used to be . loses much of its meaning . as memories fade
finding memories . that have been slightly altered . can be confusing
monuments are built . out of fading memories . and dreams of the past
with each forward step . memories become bridges . into the future
memories attach . to each other randomly . as they are recalled
simple memories . altered by the tricks of time . create surprises
