Relative Something

.

random snippets
flashing in distorted order
photo-realistic memories
no longer connected
to reality
changing names
won’t make a difference
about what happened
the way it seems to have happened
the looks in all of our eyes
the laughter
always eye-watering laughter
usually just after
tension is broken
in sensational ways
ways we will remember
in any order
for the rest of our days
including last night
on the off-beats
as the music faded out
leaving goosebumps
and tingling spines
in its disappearing wake
