Writers’ Pantry #27: “We’re Halfway There!” (posted by Rommy)
This world slips
slowly away
from me. Once
I had a tight
grip, knew who
I was, what my
next step
would be. Now,
bombardment of
new inventions,
and technologies.
Cannot grasp.
Arthritic fingers
will not reach. My
brain begs for words
that slip away
like a rubber tube
drifting in water.
I miss me. Is this
world truly slipping
away or am I?

Oh, I can so relate! Especially those arthritic fingers which make typing so laborious now, and typos ever more likely. And then there are the times I catch myself in astonishing feats of absent-mindedness. I do hope we both manage to stay grounded and functional! (On the other hand, there are things in the world today that I don’t mind slipping away from occasionally.)

I have those same feats of absent-mindedness. But, sometimes it beats reality.
