- Last summer's song is making a comeback on the radio,
- and on the highway overpass,
- the only metaphysical vandal in America has written
- MEMORY LOVES TIME
- in big black spraypaint letters,
-
- which makes us wonder if Time loves Memory back.
-
- Last night I dreamed of X again.
- She's like a stain on my subconscious sheets.
- Years ago she penetrated me
- but though I scrubbed and scrubbed and scrubbed,
- I never got her out,
- but now I'm glad.
-
- What I thought was an end turned out to be a middle.
- What I thought was a brick wall turned out to be a tunnel.
- What I thought was an injustice
- turned out to be a color of the sky.
