Defining Memory by C. E. Laine Sunday, October 20, 2002 Share Print Save Become a Fan DEFINING MEMORY Some memories are the sticky, wet red of cancer, swelling to suffocate everything else; couched in words that matter, tweaked into a "poem" that slides into fits of discontented, blue, moody eloquence. Other memories are brightly colored nylon, filled with helium, rising high and out of reach. Or spread eagle, freefall dives into ethereal patches of mist, pinched into inadequate words; enslaved by the comma and the semi-colon. Defining Memory also appears in The 2River View, 5.2 (Winter 2000).
