When his tour was over,
he came home,
unpacked his kit,
filled a modest brown box
with all the memories
of blood,
blown tissue
and breaking hearts,
taped it shut and
shoved it into the
darkest corner
of the cellar.
And he never
thought about them
again,
Except in quiet dawn,
starless nights,
and the unfilled spaces
between seconds.
