no one can remember-- by Robin Wyatt Dunn

no one can remember
nor I
we're unremembering
to find where we've been

each chapter in the memory recites itself constantly
thrumming the sky
urging us on

I don't remember why
but in unremembering I feel a reason for it
inexplicable
and deeper than the sharp stars covering my sight

won't you bide with me
over this dark time
no one will tell you
no one can see your face

we need you here
under this dark sky
to find where it is we're going
