Loss as Consolidation

Forgetting and relearning
Apparently solves something
For both humans and machines.

Presumably, the machines
Do not find themselves terrified
By the forgetting prequel

Before the relearning stage
That advances the ratchet
For more flexible knowing.

A human lost for a name,
For familiar directions,
Will likely start panicking,

Although the model relearns
By mimicking those mistakes.
