Inside My Head

Inside my head are facts I’ve learned, Some useful, others not And mem’ries to which I’ve returned That I’ve enjoyed a lot. Inside my head my brain is filled With no more room to spare, So just like milk that someone spilled, New input’s just not there. No matter what I read or hear That I wish to retain, It seems to quickly disappear, Like water down a drain.

A beautifully crafted poem. As we get older as I can attest, my brain sifts through my mem’ries holding onto nuggets bad or good that define me. The rest is flotsam. Younger folks still hold onto grains thinking they're gold. Aging is wise that way. Thank you.
