Knock! Knock!

It was like
a joke
gone wrong
or a forgotten ending.
“Knock knock! ”
said the door.
“Who’s there? ”
I answered.
It was you
or rather
the memory of you.
It just pushed
its way in
asking how I was
getting on
now that you were
gone.
“Fine! ”
(I lied)
“Fine! ”
The memory of you
...smiled.
It did everything
you used to do
set in your favorite chair
arms covering
your breasts
crossed heels
covering your sex
naked &
at the same time not
scattered underwear
everywhere
that I as usual
picked up
answering from
the darkened bedroom
in your bedroom voice
“I’m
in here! ”
Shouted from the loo
for a new loo roll
as if you were
a programmed hologram
from the deck of
the Starship Enterprise.
Highly illogical.
The memory of you
did everything
you do
except be
you
for real.
