*********************
The Empty Vessel Forgets
Whenever I don't remember I
always assume I was only
so absorbed in some present
moment that nothing was recorded.
Imagine the enthusiasm
I must emit if found
in this fit of overflowing
existential reverie!
Others ought not take offense when
I forget everything that happened
because I was probably participating
just in some other state at the time.
Still I see your concern
at my absence and under-
stand how you must ask
Is that amnesia?
Well life is simple when innocent
of information one ought to know
but momentarily misplaced
in the vault of varied consciousness.
