BRAIN A LITTLE SCRAMBLED

They are still searching my brain
They keep sending me in this little box
Now hold your breath--breathe!
It's a little claustrophobic
"What is the last thing you remember?"
"Help, I'm falling and blacking out."
"Aare you dizzy and having blackouts?"
"I kind off like it, when the stars leave
I am finally able to sleep."
"What is your name--slowly I am trying to remember?"
"How many fingers do you see?"
"Five--two of them are pointing at my nose"
"Now how many do you see?"
"Still see five one is pointing up."
"Close your eyes open them and what do you see?"
"A bunch of letters but in a foreign language"
The Q's look like o"s and third line has straight lined
"Look at my nose?"
"Do I have to things are floating about."
"We are scheduling you for an MRI we think you have a concussion."
"Really I could have told you that, I can't remember my phone number."

I think I am still recovering from my fall. Either that or
suffering from Alzheimer's. Wife whistles when it's dinner time,
So far I have been coming home wherever that is!

Grandson is leading team in average, runs, RBI .533, Third highest
in conference. Last game stole three bases and tied for first in base stealing too.
Obviously does not have Grandpa's wheels. If I die before I wake
It's your turn the bed to make./dandy
