UNPACKING

 

Where is it?

I think I saw it

in a box somewhere

or did I put it in a drawer

or room?

or closet?

check the garage

dig through the packing paper

is it in the trash can?

I think I saw it

yesterday

but now I forget where it was

in moving

in these new surroundings

I lose track of things

the mind cannot process it all

I forget where I am

I forget where stuff is

forgive me my trespasses

forgive me

my forgetfulness.

Even worse when the surroundings are the usual familiar ones!!!

We have just moved house and I concur with this entirely. The only upside is that when the dishwasher needs emptying, or the table clearing I have no idea where anything goes. So I leave it to Our Gert.

Define the difference between -
absent minded
and
when the mind goes absent. ?
