yesterday
i barely remember
what thoughts i was thinking
of what meals i surely
must have partaken
of what jokes
made me giggle and snort
my recollection is fading and
temptation is mounting
to invent doodles to fill
in the blanks
watch my devastation
be upgraded to elation
my failures morphed to grand feats
i’m the star of this show
shine the spotlight on me
i’m the envy
of revisionist history
