‘Buy bleach’. Notes written to yourself. Notes you forgot you sent to yourself. They crossed time without you. A few days – and there they are, notes on yellow post-its, some faded, some older than a few days.
‘Buy bleach’ – did you remember to buy bleach? Did you remember to remember? Because you’ve written a second note, ‘buy bleach’. A second note on a less faded post-it.
The light falls on them there, the post-its with their bottom edges curling upwards, aslant from the window above the door. Falls and fades them like the fading of memory: did you remember to remember? Did you remember to buy bleach?
