Trapped

He was trying to invent a formula to connect seemingly unrelated fragments of memories into an inextricable thread. As the glimpses of the past flashed before him, he tried to delve into each of them, reliving them in their entirety, to extract its significance in the events that were to occur. He started one day at a time, moving backwards. He immersed himself so completely in this endeavor that eventually his past became his future and his future, the past.

Months later, he still found himself trapped in that circular day he had found amnesia.
