All the darlings come back –
during a measureless afternoon: the heart.
The wandering kind is
no longer unsettled.
Darling meets darling –
memory does no longer fear the leaps of the heart;
it becomes
the beloved,
the unsettled darling
that must be put to rest.
The rest is mobile.
Memory loss: going from the Heart towards the Heart
