Disorientation – Senryu

by Susan Zutautas on March 5, 2019

This is written in response to Reena’s Exploration Challenge.

 

Waking abruptly

from a scraping noise outside

Where the hell am I

 

Looking all around

Confused disoriented

Loss of cognition

 

Aging rapidly

Spinning out of one’s control

Dementia distinct

    There are various layers to the problem. At times, they can remember the remote past so well, and forget they had breakfast half an hour ago.

    Thanks for joining in, Susan!

    We know how difficult this is for families, I can’t imagine what it’s like to be the person struggling to make sense of what’s happening to and around them.
