42footprints: Amnesia (Jack/Doctor) [PG]
Title: Amnesia
Author: 42footprints
Challenge: Amnesia at wintercompanion
Rating: PG
Spoilers: None specifically.
You don't forget nothing, you just don't think
to call it to mind, the flotsam of boredom
washing against the conscious sands,
shifting with memory. Something happens,
the stone in the ocean, that's when you forget.
It's like watching the forces that make a black hole;
the massive implosion of a supernova
dragging itself into non-existence.
There's a hole in my mind. I think you can feel
how it swallows time. I dream about it
reversing its flow, til the things I've forgotten
are spat like cherry stones out of a window
to pepper the garden with stained lipped laughter.
Maybe I did that. Want to find out with me?
