AGing
Born a
blank slate
as time passes
we face up to a
faculty/facility lapse.
Blessing
curse or both
make no mistake we
face the question of where
to devote
mental functions:
to think where, if when becomes
more important than what, where do
who and why most likely slouch towards
how does how
or for that matter
utters muttered just for
the iFaction of it ‘til ramble
brambles ‘til AtiFaction defaults,
what mental resources do I focus on
on what went before, Memory or
on what comes in now, Cognitive or
on what might happen, Intellectual or
thinly allocate these thinning resources to
too much information?
Jimmy Shaker ponders this, in his limited way
