Patter and the lion

I always remember my idea
about sticks 

when I think of you. Well, 
now and then, sometimes!

I described it once perfectly
years ago, and have thought
of your reaction fondly, couple
few glows since.

It was worth it.

Just so you know.

But
Now. 
Caught your eyes lit up
at me across the room, you 
come dragging a cross in the form 
of two friends by both inside-arms 
in a beeline to plant yourself in 
bloom,
in my sudden loss: you stand. 
Like a beacon between, and

you beam: the death sentence! 

"Say that again!" 

Remake?
Or...Reboot...?
Prequel seek? Or up
sequel creek without
a producer's note
or a writers' moot? 

Total Impossible Recall,
or Feeling/Moment Recreation
Trick?

Or Mission: Impossible
Not To Botch?

Or give totally new idea 
as-if? 

Or: try it fresh
again right now? 

What sticks
