Spilling the candy in the lobby

pull apart twizzlers, fell on the floor now covered in fuzz

but the package contained more long red strips 

to pull apart and unwind

the question is to move forward or regret the one that fell on the floor

to pull apart and unwind

Our persistent memories are just like the twizzler

to pull apart and unwind

the temporal lobe keeps these treasures of memories

and can be activated with guided imagery and sound

together to pull apart and unwind 

to remember, to release the backstory

perhaps to create a legacy

So, if you spill your candy in the lobby

it is safe with me, pick it up

pull it apart and unwind
