Nasal Nostalgia

some sweet succulent smell reminds of long ago reminds of better times (apple orchard, college dorm, time spent stuck inside on a snowy evening) reminds of beloved people now long gone (gf, bf, random 1ns) reminds of the moments that make our hearts race (1st kiss, 1st time on stage, 1st walk in a foreign country) reminds of the ways in which the human body can flip (into foreplay), twirl (heating up), pulsate (geyser bâclée) & convulse with pleasure (reverberations throughout) & snnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnifffffffffffffffffffffff breathing in snnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnifffffffffffffffffffffff breathing in again--- there are smells which tell of times spent with family members which may no longer be with us that make the gut wrench in pain & the heart ache when they return unwanted (due to the interruption of our lives, invasive return) & this is why two people can smell the same thing with a completely different tone in the reception of the following situation--- we fall in love with our smells & we run from them, but alas, unlike the sights & sounds that accompany our memories, they take the longest to fade--- it is even said that mothers can recognize their biological young by their smell, though how nostalgic that can be, one wonders.
