Far away under metal roofs
We watch the glass cases being moved in
Filled with things we will never remember
Fossils
Mostly from when we were small
Ordinary things from ordinary places
Sights and smells we forgot
That used to be the biggest thing
A red kitten sweater from my Nana’s trunk decades old
That I actually still have
And wear
With the skirt I found in the thrift store
And the old yellow sneakers that I found
And some of my friends laugh because they are old
But I wear them
And I can feel the color red
