Gimmie Poem by anais vionet

Gimmie

Rating: 4.0

Peter's off again to job interview (second round, in Geneva) , he was only here two days but something of him remained behind. Oh, fingerprints for sure - but memories too - like scattered Christmas wrappings - or a poem:

Ok, gimme me your best day, take your best shot at perfection.

Our minds take experiences and press them grape-like,
into the intoxicating liquor of memory.

The vivid ones linger - unaltered - like youthful Internet mistakes forever posted.

Someday to beckon us back, teasingly - like bright, neon signage.

Indeed, memories are advertisements that remind one to hold onto feelings. They hover slightly above one's focal point, ready to be summoned when practicality's gaze wanders.

'like youthful Internet mistakes forever posted. Someday to beckon us back, teasingly' - wonderful! - like bright, neon signage
