Calculus of Days ***
When a thing does happen
it becomes the past
and the past is gone
forever way beyond our grasp.
So here we are remembering it
a movie shown just once
burning as the reel rolls by
the past is not for us.
A picture or a post card
from someone long ago
like a recent holiday
regrettably is gone.
The moment that I wrote this
it simply passed away
I'm aflame
so near to it
the calculus of days.
