BROUGHT BACK WITH MEMORIES
mad hippie poet 1974 (new jersey)
How do I remember memories that never happened? Who is calling my name, entering my dreams with their messages and what they want to say? I was at Sunday family dinner, recalling things I was too young to remember or not born yet. Old things that there are no records of who is sending me signs from up above?
The last time I spoke to my grandparents was when I died, and they were talking to me and holding my hand on the ride to the hospital. All I recall of that conversation was my papa saying, it is not your time to go my nana said you won't believe the things we want to show.
What are these memories, these messages? There were no damn pictures or maps, just very vivid colors of blue, yellow, purple, and black that's all I remember before the EMTs, for a second time brought me from the dead back.
