Distance cannot be bridged with an image
Days apart are not removed with a phone call
To be estranged is to be almost
notquite
not.

So we make little shrines
on bulletin boards in the kitchen,
Attached to refrigerators with Real estate company magnets
on monitors

photos of timespent- time remembered -time cherished

They are snapshots of the moment--only a glimpse of what we recall - a blurred memory
The smell of burning leaves can bring back an entire semester-
A single song can remind me us of an entire day
an echo
it is like that
