Dementia Looks In the Mirror
Awful hair is filthy
Hairy legs are terrible too
Whose body is this?
Asked the raggedy lady in blue.
Her mind laughed of course
Knowing something was amiss
Dementia coaxed her into action
She gave a stranger a kiss
It is time to bathe you
Said her uniformed keepers
You have to catch me first!
She ran off in her sleepers.
