what do you do
with someone who doesn't know
what day of the week it is
what time it is
what the line is between right and wrong?
It's all a twilight

a brain living and playing
grey matter solitaire
recluse or refuses clues
No waking up and realizing
there's something
an outdoors
the girl next door
a boy or someone else
Blank stare

Absolutely, Richard. I was also thinking it could apply to acts of the ill, self-deception, cognitive dissonance, or just plain cluelessness.b

I think it is dealing with old age or some one with Alzheimer. But last lines through a twist to create a confused person of any age. The one deprived of even simple pleasures of life.
Great observations, Savita. Thanks for reading.
