memory foam

i was thinking about

a few

of the nine pillows i have on my

bed,

it felt like

a few weren't as cushy as they

used to be.

each one was labeled

with memory foam.

but there was no memory

anymore,

early dementia had set in,

the sundown syndrome.

can a pillow acquire Alzheimer's?

they were hard now,

lumpy,

if you want the truth.

parts of them 

were soft and mushy.

flat as pancakes.

anyway.

there was no memory left

in these pillows.

no short term, no long term.

nothing.

memory foam. pfffft.
