Superpower
If I have a kind of superpower,
it’s recalling names of folks I haven’t seen in years.
I forget new names within the hour;
it’s like the brain reboots and the memory clears.
It gives folks a thrill to think you know ‘em,
but trading short for long might not be a thing to seek.
I have a certain sense about this poem:
it seems identical to one I wrote last week.
