have you ever wondered

… if …

… perhaps …

… it could be …

that your memory wasn’t the problem

that who you are is not

beyond your own controlling

the result of some chance

cosmic ray’s billiard bounce

through your memories

that who you are does not

own memories at fault

false truths manufactured

by wishful thinking or

an author’s splendid dream

… what if …

it was real

… what if …

it was all real

the you that you are

you are today

this moment

right now

not by whim or fancy

but by firm recollection

of things forgotten by all

but you

haven’t you ever wondered

if maybe it wasn’t a dream

after all?
