Another step closer
Another step closer
To the Final Journey
As short term memory loss sets in.
I think I got up to go to the can
Ended up looking for my black sox in the fridge.
Nowhere to be found.
They were not behind the butter
They were not behind the milk either
Though I was sure....
But where was the milk?
So getting pretty mad at this point
And the bigger urge to go for a pee setting in
I finally got the point
And ran to the john.

Interesting write robert, I guess the mind tends to lose track from time to time.

Doing ok, thanks. But STML, short term memory loss happens as you age. Regards, Robert.
