I don’t recall calling you Shirley?? When I was young, I had an almost photographic memory. However, after age 30 it started declining.
Throw in a little oxygen deprevation, and the ole brain just ain’t what it used to be. That old saying about not remembering because you’ve slept since then, has lots of truth.

Structure
My brain is an attic, with cobwebs and dust,
The pipes of my bones being nothing but rust,
The garments all hang so decidedly limp,
That my pace when it functions is that of a gimp.
Timeworn and tattered, I'm ready to fall,
Only standing here still just awaiting a call,
One day there'll be daylight where thoughts came and went,
Through the dust cloud remains of a statue of lint.

When I was young, I had an almost photographic memory. I still have a photographic memory. Unfortunately, I still use film and all the readers are digital.
