In my chair feet dangling lacking rationality I'd reason with you if I could if you'd listen then I would-- how I yearn lucidity vocabulary's art of tongue wisdom of the very young or elderly too tired to speak and no-- it's not the shape of spoon no--it's not the taste of food nor is it your lack of game that makes me clamp my lips this way rejection of the offerings enticement of the sugar sweet coatings of the coo-- say "Please?" I turn my head away. Put the bowl down. Let me be. When I get hungry I will eat. |

Loved this Serenity! Damn! Is everyone been writing up a storm while I've been working 56 hour weeks? Too good girl! Remember, if you're not part of the future, you're history! |

serenity, As I read this I couldn't help thinking it's not about the young, or the old, but about all of us who have needed care at one time or might in the future. Too sad. Too true. "When I am hungry I will eat". "Infirmary", if it rings a bell that's not Pavlovs',then you've probably been there. Thanks for this one. Doc |

This reminds me of the time I played with laryngitis [what else does one do with it?] and the questions never seemed to cease... and all I could do was fold arms and shake head. I like Doc's take on it as well. We have to be there, to know! |
