Inside Out

My memory drawers are no longer in the right order but not any longer I think about it with terror I have separated with myself and I, around me they pretend that's everything is alright, they say that I just got to sit tight
However I know that my substance has slowly been replaced by absence, many of my souvenirs are eradicated whereas others are very often fabricated
I am no hen living in a grange so I find it strange that they often use the word re-arrange, have you ever noticed that dementia has the same ending than the word asphyxia
In the end I don't really care if my bread is white or brown because they would not let me go to town
They say my head is all upside down.
I no longer remember if I am an adult or a child
But it does not really matter now if I am wise or if I am getting a little bit wild
Each time I attempt a trip at the brain it seems such a task so vain it seems so insane
I appreciate I am sometimes on auto repeat, I realize I have lost my grit
I find that silence brings lucidity, a welcome respite, a new found ability to deal with all that oddity
Isn't it weird that I cannot stand wearing a beard, it's probably because the guys from ZZ Top have come up with a plot
I no longer remember if I am an adult or a child
So it does not really matter if I am wise or if I am getting a little bit wild
I forgot the oven was on but how come since I clearly remember I was there with my cooking gloves on
Possibly its just because I sat on the stairs with the drowning intensity of a glare so bare
I know that I left the keys on the table, Galileo knew that the earth moves around the sun
So why suddenly do I have such a fascination with the purchase of a gun
oh tis four, it's time to eat the jam from the bun?
I no longer remember if I am an adult or a child
Do you think it does matter if I am a little bit wise or if I am getting absolutely wild?
Yeah I know I talk a lot to my spoon its because cutlery citizens are nice, did you know that so many of them were living on the moon
I overheard the word cocoon, somebody called me a buffoon alas its time to watch my favorite cartoon
I called my daughter mummy, well I think it was my daughter or maybe it was my doctor
I find she has lovely eyes which are always perfectly blue when she cries
Don't you think that regression rimes well with diminution?
Would it be worth trying to pair it with restoration?
I no longer remember if I am an adult or a child
It does not really matter if you cannot pass me the extinguisher
I doubt it would help quenching the last flames of desire?
The butter cream smothered the cake, no more wishes I want to make
So I guess it does indicate it's probably time to muffle the life term

thanks Joel Anderson I am probably nowhere near the reality of what they may experience in the end I guess it maybe nothing more than a simple exercise in applied empathy 🤔

thanks Gert Scholtz appreciate the comment. As often I take on stuff frontally I don't always find it easy but when it works it all worth it. My next one is in the same vein but different and its causing me problems too maybe I should write about unicorns and fairies :-)

We can laugh at it now as we experience the chapters. To share one of these adventures. We were at work when we recived the call. The inlaw was shaping up a dram playing out in our living room. Apparently the local news channel was in there wanting to question here about her all boss from twenty years ago. My wife asked her to go into the room and describe what she saw. She couldn't she was frozen with fear of past indescretions she new here boss had committed. We went home only to find the mid day local news playing in the living room on the TV. It was sad at the moment we experienced it. Maybe even a little anger in having to come home and help her back to a safe mental place where she could actually relax. But she has gone to a better place now so we can laugh at it.

I am so sorry to hear this and the experience you had :-( , dementia is widespread enough but nobody really speak (or want to) about it its painful to see individuals being erased overnight almost from society contributor to burden. Thanks for commenting Harvey Lloyd

ah Jerry I am glad it struck a chord not because of the delivery or the quality of writing (if any) but because I have done justice to those who are no longer themselves. Many thanks :-)
