i find my two fencing masks
in a dusty corner
looking blankly
with their compounded mesh bee eyes
and telling me that they
did not remember me for an instant
what happened to the young man
who last put them on to fight the good fight?

It is most surprising when you go clean out garages and lofts and see the memories that you may have forgotten.
It is almost a kind of haunting!
