Phoned home last weekend.
Ah Gong finally asked Mom after almost 4 months,
'Where is your kid? So long haven't come.'
Mom was quite happy,
Because Ah Gong has Alzheimer's.
'You remember?'
'Of cos I do!'
3rd Aunt, whose boy is in army, asked him,
'How about my son? Do you remember him?'
'Huh, you got a son meh?'
She was very upset.

It may be the alcohol from last 2 weeks,
Or it may be simply just me.
I feel souless,
And have been feeling so for a long time.
Just that I only noticed it today,
Just that I only found the name for it today.

I'm just a brain controlling a flesh sac known as my body.
Or perhaps I cannot even call it a brain anymore,
For it does not think,
And it does not remember.
I look, but I do not see.
I listen, but I do not hear.
I touch, but I do not feel.
Who? What? When? Where? Why? How?
I do not know.
