perfumes that ebb like memories, mental antidotes
for a path traveled
aromas that remind
much more aptly than images,
while strangers smile
and world’s overlap
it’s not as much about
minding the gap,
as it is
falling in from time to time
leaving behind sanitized realities
so as to remind one’s self
that “easy” isn’t
the same as “good” jump. right. in.
