Document Summary

What is called deja vu (by suzanne buffam) In the poem deja vu suzanne buffam uses sensory details to express the feeling of deja vu. One day they come out of the sky and make everything wet. They then, glisten, briefly, then vanish, disappear like our memories. One day a memory comes to our mind and the next moment it just disappears. The rain reminds her of, your fingers tap along my spine, which makes her shiver. A big wind, a slant wind, hits her so she can not ignore the wind or the memory. A memory that she has to look at. Memories come out suddenly and cannot be stopped even if you don"t want to look at them or remember. The sound of the train"s whistle, unspools a wake of old longings, bringing back the memory. You never know what sound, sight or smell might make us remember something.
