learn to say “I can’t say” “I don’t remember”
learn to say nothing
train your memory to fail
recognize that you have the right to make mistakes
to stay mute
insist that the noise in your ears is due merely
to history’s winds or to the changes in pressure
that make mirages out of daily life

It has been waaay too long since I was here. My life seems lacking, somehow, without your special vision.
I echo the sentiment -- too long since my last visit. will keep stopping by, though, in the hope that secretfragileskies returns at some point. :)
