“Every day / a few billion histories fail to occur.”
Lawrence Raab, The History of Forgetting

“I’d like to tell you
not to be afraid, but I’ve lost

my voice. I’m not used to all these
legs, these claws, these feelers.
It’s the old story, predictable
as fallout—the rearrangement of molecules.
And everyone is surprised
and no one understands

why each man tries to kill
the thing he loves, when the change
comes over him. So now you know
what I never found the time to say.
Sweetheart, put down your flamethrower.
You know I always loved you.”
Lawrence Raab

“We want to forget
until we start to forget.

from the poem Regret”
Lawrence Raab, The History of Forgetting
