Alzheimers
The fog
she loves her agile mind
and dreads the fog
fervently she favours
blueberries and kefir
and push-ups and planks
and tiny meals
she has a project
and a thousand friends
she dreads the fog

Re-mind me
Mind,
remind me:
are you still mine?

For a minute
For a minute you thought
like a mythical hippo
that it was Monday.
Eat blueberries.
Yesterday’s treat
is tomorrow’s mythical cure.
From Senior Poems by Rachel McAlpine
Sacred solecism
He was blessed
by the Holy Farmer—?
How random
and how rural
are our thoughts.
