Brain Fog

When the legendary Green Bay quarterback,
Who is on the screen as I speak,
Becomes “that guy on the Packers,”
When one of my closest friends becomes
“The tall dude from the magazine,”
When my dog, at leash’s end,
Will respond neither to my son’s name nor my wife’s,
Because the dog has a name of her own,
I will begin to believe that things will never be the same.

What will that feel like
If I can’t remember how they were?
