What was that Great Beginning Again?
I had a great opening line for this post - 10 minutes ago! Damned if I can remember what it was. There are a few reasons why that does not really worry me - bother me yes - but no worries.
Firstly I recognize that I forgot something and the nature of that something. Secondly I will probably recall it later. Thirdly, I just dreamt (dreamed for some) up a different one. If my mind were really slipping, I would not be aware of any of these things. I also just corrected some grammar, spelling, and typos.
Finally I probably could not compose the following:
I can't locate my glasses
The second time today.
Checked my head, beside the bed,
Annoying, I must say.
We need a few small items
I shop most every day.
And now I'm pissed - I lost the list.
Can't see it anyway!
Could things get any worse I ask?
Perhaps my brakes will seize!
I won't find out and start to shout
For I misplaced my keys!
Eventually I find all three
And set off to the store.
My day's not done, it's just begun
At least my life's no bore.
I push my cart to checkout
A light begins to flash.
To make my day I try to pay -
No phone, no cards, no cash!
Perhaps my lucky break has come.
No lecture from my spouse.
No Cheshire grin nor nagging din -
I'm in the wrong damned house!
