Daylight Saving Time


Set the clocks back one hour, woke confused, sent a text message,
“I thought we turned clocks back last night. I was wrong, it’s tonight.”
“We did turn the clocks back last night. It was 6 am and light.”
 
Sunlight kitchen window, I’m so easily lost
Should I search for online self-administered dementia tests?
Should I tell Dr. Rizvi I’m euphemistically “not happy”?
 
The noticeable blur in the right eye, the inflamed synovial tissue,
mysterious once-familiar objects, forgotten names.
How it takes one hour to walk two miles, a recalcitrant donkey.
