Threadbare Reality

There are daze 
when I feel overwhelmed
by things that were
once so simple only yesterday...

My frayed brain synapses 
temporarily disconnected
from how to perform
basic functional tasks...

Gotta step back...

Take a deep breath...

Slow down
this spinning carousel
and come to grips
with my elderly driven
cognitive limitations...

Mick was so correct when he foretold...

What a drag it is getting old
