They call it Memory
but they start face down:
random, telling nothing
of the pictures they wear.
Nothing at all
and yet I'm supposed to recall.
Recall what? The shadows
the carpet sees?
I'm a carpet - not;
I have eyes
and the carpet none
and even if it did,
how is that recall?
My reasoning begs for a quick peek first
before I guess.
Otherwise, this is just a move of luck.

When it finally snows here, I'll catch a snowflake and put it in the fridge.
