One
day, young ones, you will look up
and
see what has been forgotten. I can
say
this with surety because it has hap-
pened
to me. Anyone of a certain age
can
make this claim. Just continuing to
breath
in and out shall one day get you
there
to a place and time you suddenly
recall.
And it is then you will look up
and
find your youth behind you strug-
gling
to catch up to the older and for-
getful
you, the new you who suddenly
remembers
where and when. Turn
around,
young ones, and look up. The
trail
is dusty and long. That lost name
will
come to you eventually.
Throw
a kiss to your fondest memory
and
waive goodbye. You have arrived.
