Parts
missing;
untangling
ethereal
strands.

Such a powerful yet delicately stated, intriguing and compelling write John. Absolutely astute and beautifully expressed. Your write sparkles on a sad subject. Fantastic poetry..

Short, but very thought provoking. Dementia is more common than I ever cared to admit, and it's something that I fear in old age! // paul

Agreed, as age creeps up me, worries for this and other degenerative diseases concern me more and more. Thanks for your comments, Paul. Regards, John.
