There’s no need to derail it I suppose, the fact
is what riles you, and you know exactly, its the
self-assurance you were once made from that
same steel; well, granted it was true, then age
has wearied it a bit such that incidence of rust
dispels an image you’ve clung to: it says - ‘I’m
still competent as any of yez - the evidence is
clear, back up & take an unprejudiced squiz..’
Maybe the occasional ‘stuff-up’ is mistaken as
clues to competence failing; odd, though, that
you only pigeon-holed me - how about seeing
it a product of your own advancing dementia -
or are we getting into no no land of short term
memory loss crossed today with Alzheimers
We’ll pray that’s the least of it is all they’ll say
