I Just Remembered To Post This Quote About Memory

________________________________________________________________________________________________

Memory strikes me

as a kind of dumbness.
It makes one's head heavy and giddy
as if one were not looking back down

the receding perspectives of time

but rather down on the earth
from a great height,

from one of those towers
whose tops are lost

to view in the clouds.

W. G. Sebold

The blurbs have some blur
but they also have
a whole lot of accuracy
