It starts with a slip.
My attention drifts and…shhht.
It’s gone.
It lingers on my periphery, flutters, and leaves.
Then it dances back, days later, to remind me,
not of what I’d forgotten but that I’d forgotten.
I begin to hate it, swatting and grasping until in my clenched fist,
I have it...
Maybe.
I check only to see it fly away,
mocking me for my delicate hands and lack of confidence.
I don’t need this idea.
I have hundreds more…
Dozens at least…
One of them will surely be along…
Any minute now…
“long lost” is a collection of re-imagined sculpture. Each piece is a memory of an idea of what I hoped it might become. They are brave, fragile failures refusing to concede. They are convinced that they can reveal what I had forgotten and find themselves in the process.
