Mnemonic Valentine

I find the world is a mnemonic device
For remembering former lives
And revising future strategies
 
This is what the plants do
They try hard to remember something
And then memorialize it
 
Remembering is a kind of longing
Where would we be
Without our longing
 
But one clear thought
Is trying to adhere
To so much will and feeling
 
It builds a kind of chaos
In the heart a whirling
Nest-like thing
