repressed footnotes
on an archival page
resurrected by
genealogical research
and the discovery
of a sepia photo
that is no longer
portentously bound
the vignette
an uninhibited pose
of visceral youth
two ebullient sisters
that gaze out
with enigmatic smiles
and whisper yet the mosaic
of memories that
once defined their days
