unfurling capsules of moments left dead and dry upon the cliffs of time
only to be refreshed once in a while by the ebb and flow of forever
nostalgia's the name of the medicine
prescriptions for the price of happiness
a fair trade if necessity rules the kingdom
undoing the things that have been done
and redoing those things that only sentiment understands
rewind and fast-forward
but never stop, never pause
immortal movements captured within the time it takes to convert oxygen into carbon dioxide
only to be unfurled later by the ones who were too young to understand
the ones that were not yet of the age when things begin to crumble, irrevocably so
these are the ones who will unfurl
undo
redo
rewind
fast-forward
