The Authenticator
My brain is like my computer
running out of space
slow to startup because
its memory is too full.
When I try to trash files
the Finder can’t complete
the operation because
some data can’t be
read or written
or completed without
authentication.
I am the Finder
and authenticator
unable to trash or
delete my memories.

I really like this! I’ve always thought of how difficult it is to cling to memories and all the info we’ve learned over the years, how strange it is we often end up unwillingly forgetting to keep remembering. This expressed some of that loss wonderfully.
Thank you for you comments. This is came to me while I was having difficulty deleting files on my computer while simultaneously having the feeling of a clogged brain trying to remember things.
