Memories of my cells

A Poem by Sofiko Emiry

"Memories of us"

You know my cells have memory
They remember when you sound sincere or phoney
You know my cells make cacophonies
When you are not around ;
And love goes
Thousands of miles
Scampering alone
Or among red lights
Arisen on its ways.
You know my cells have memory
They know stories of your glory
And agony
They cherish all your straight-forwards
All allegories
Truths and lies and bribes.
You know my cells have memory
They detect quickly anonyms
Of your every attempt
To kiss me at night
When in lethargy
You think I will not know
Who kisses me.
You know my cells have memory
Atony of feeling is a bad attorney
And antonyms of us seek to take apart
Whole we or our or us.
But...
Memories of my cells
Keep together drifters and travelers
Lovers, man and woman in a cosy house.

You know my cells have memory...
