*this poem is dedicated to all those who are suffering from Dementia and Alzheimers and have lost themselves somewhere


Bravely I set out

To do a reconnaissance 

To gain knowledge of a known enemy

Before I fell into the conduit flume

Of an esoteric metaphysical chute!

 

Standing in stark nakedness

I am at the underpass 

Drawn by the verdant darkness

The quagmire of my mind in a quandary

An impending imbroglio of confusion. 

 

I tumbled unknowingly into deceit

A treacherous morass of neurons 

Now in a log jam of lies.

Like a fiddlercrab with mechanical radiance

spring adorns itself with million flowers

Only to face autumnal defeat!

 

My memories still sleep safely in my past!!!!

 

The world is now a narrow tunnel

Opening into mysterious locations

Why then do I need extra memory

I seek directions even after the address is given.

 

Got to find that woman who was my friend

She will help me knit back my life

To become the bioethical captain of my ship

But my rudder is broken to bits!

 

Strange....the female face in the mirror is familiar

She smiles with defective deep dimples

Fake laughter filters my hapless soul

Can she take me home?

My family must miss me..it is late!

 

Excuse me...is this my home?

Excuse me...do I know you?

Please find me albeit by chance

I feel like a phantom

A mere specter from my past!!!!
