Released From Recollection


I now watch the changing seasons 
with a greater attention to detail.
A sense of awe stirs deep within me.
My brain carefully collects and arranges each element.
"I'll make sure I remember this."
Thus, each item is consistently, mentally misplaced,
and consigned to oblivion.
And so, it feels as though 
I am experiencing so much for the first time.
Only my spirit feels the warmth of familiarity.
It is that Other part of me
that now recalls, retains, and recognizes.
As I observe these transformations around me,
with a mind released from recollection,
it feels as if I am also altered.
I hibernate.
I awaken.
I shimmer.
I fade.
