Forgetfulness
By joyismine
FORGETFULNESS I've gone to wash dishes A dozen times or more; Overflowed the sink, And flooded the floor. I no sooner get the water turned on Than I leave the room, or answer the phone. The first clue I have Of a memory lapse Is my sloshing in water, As I return in my path. The waterfall tumbling over sink edge with foam Makes me doubly thankful that I'm home alone; For how can you explain A gal in her prime forgetting entirely... A lapse of the mind.
