Dementia
Emerging hints of a grimace perplexed his face
Trying to de-code the verbal and non-verbal cues
Of the staff who were present for his complex case
For he no longer could trust his pre-frontal cortical process
He was not always so sure of what he was doing
Yet he managed to take care of the basics with little damage
Isolated in a world of his own he longed for the universal
Connection to direct himself and find warmth in affection
He shouted out in an agitated manner and was told to
Sit down and have some water when all he wanted was
His towel so that he could take his daily shower
