the precipitation in southeastern north america

holding onto shreds of evidence
that i have lived and breathed in
the quick little ghost of a memory
swirls away to reappear like smoke

i am timid, not a spider stalking these memories.
fragile.
i will play the part of myself in these apparitions if not for the caution of lessons learned.
it is so easy to become a child.
