(This is a villianelle. Poetry of a certain rhyme scheme that repeats lines throughout to emphasize its meaning.)
Memory banks grant thanks to her mind,
She's harnessed the ability of time's feel
She's captured photographs in capsules' bind
Camera lens of past project movies that rewind
The reels of yesterday display scenes that heal,
Memory banks grant thanks to her mind
Nothing seems to last, what's real -- she can't find
Define frames of erosion to divine magnetic steel
She's captured photographs in capsules' bind
When God's hand & her clock clash in time
Designed fate shall be set to reveal,
Memory banks grant thanks to her mind
Images of the future never pass, just wind,
In cycles which entrap her life's hourglass in seal
She's captured photographs in capsules' bind
Grains of sands shake weight & grind,
The liquids of the day, they steal
Memory banks grant thanks to her mind,
She's captured photographs in capsules' bind,
