High School Reunion

3 December 2004
Corpus Christi, Texas

I've heard that
trying to go back
to one room school,
board and seats and desks
all seem shrunk.
Like clothes left in the closet,
not worn for months
that you no longer fit into—
not because there's been a weight gain,
but for the unseen
shrinking of our memories.

A.N. From a comment to Faithless Juliet’s “What The Hell Was I Thinking” story id 1773803.
