Memory Implants Give Rats Sharper Recollection

Electrodes alight
Images hover hazily then snap to focus
Apples, swarming with bees, rot beneath a picket fence
Freed from Kodachrome,
Mother and father climb from forgotten photographs
Dusting off shoulders, straighening hair
Her waist, trim in terrycloth
His forehead unlined, though eyes already crease in the glint of afternoon sun
Electrodes alight
Summoning Good Humor trucks and sprinklers,
Fireflies and empty fields
Streets of half-built homes
Smelling of promise and saw dust.
