Analysis of The Same But Different
Piecing it together
for a second time
the result was not the same
The years had altered
the way each piece fit
a strange familiar game
Instinct overwriting
what memory lost
the picture starts to clear
My past and future
now conjoined
—as moments reappear
(The New Room: March, 2022)
