Caren Krutsinger Poet Prose Poetry

Could You Please Write It Down

Show me again and again and again
one more time please.
Please do not give up; do not assume that I know
even if you think I have been shown.

I really need to figure out how to
use this inhaler, so please keep trying.
You never know which one is listening.
when you are showing it to me,
You are not showing it to a whole,
you are speaking to but one

There are many more,
although I am not sure
how many as we refuse
to show or talk to each
other.

Could you write it down
please?

M. L. Kiser December 12, 2018 at 6:43 AM Memory is a curious thing; it can go for so many reasons; I have better memory now than when I was in my 20's. I discovered the memory problems were caused by job stress. Caren Krutsinger December 12, 2018 at 1:00 PM That would probably do it. I cannot believe how badly some physical things like stress can irritate your whole psyche.

Jan Allison December 9, 2018 at 6:17 AM I have to write technical things down like how to upload photos from my camera or I forget how to do it and I don't want to irritate hubby but he is patient and it only takes a few seconds to jog a memory... mum is get to g more and more annoyed with her short term memory, I try and help her remember... no fun getting old:-( hugs Jan xx Caren Krutsinger December 9, 2018 at 11:17 AM If my husband runs off with the circus, I will not be able to watch TV.
