Poet's Corner

My forgetter's getting better,
But my rememberer is broke,
to you that may seem funny...
but, to me, that is no joke!

For when I'm "here" I'm wondering,
If I really should be "there"...
And, when I try to think it through,
I haven't got a prayer!

Oft times I walk into a room,
Say "what am I here for?"
I wrack my brain, but all in vain,
A zero, is my score.

At times I put something away,
Where it is safe, but, Gee!
The person it is safest from,
Is, generally, me!

When shopping I may see someone,
Say "Hi" and have a chat,
Then, when the person walks away...
I ask myself, "who's that?"

Yes, my forgetter's getting better,
While my rememberer is broke,
And it's driving me plumb crazy,
And that isn't any joke.
