La Desintegración de la Persistencia de la Memoria
, died.
stopped talking to months ago because of
but write while still in shock.
Earlier, I felt cold chill made me feel
empty close to when died.
I wonder what after we stopped talking.
I wonder how will be now.
don’t know exact details about other than it was .
We two years ago and I know felt but that’s in the past; forgave me for that.
Anyhow, wish I had more to say but
I bought L&M menthol 100s in honor
and shared them with since
liked them too.

The fragmented structure of this poem is wonderfully done. Thank you for sharing.
Creative and thought provoking!
I agree. This is a very successful unusual form. The spaces speak to the disintegration. The poem shows so well what it is like when someone we knew/cared about dies, if we have been out of contact. I like the specificity of the L&M Menthols – how we grab on to whatever symbolizes someone’s presence in our life.
Fabulous poem.
