Dusk, Daytime, Dawn

Decoding dementia

DUSK

dimming day, delicious dinner

daper darlings deepening devotion

divine, deserved, devil's dessert

dark daiquiri disguises dizzy daze

drunk detachment? damned detached day!

difficulty dozing, deciphering dreams

divorcing dwelling, divorcing domain

digging, digging, delicate digging

dirt destiny, dopamine decreasing

dial doctors, DNA depleting



DAYTIME

disease? disorder, debilitating distance

dis-ease dis-ease declaring division

duty, dignity...dwindling diction

dates defining discombobulated days

decades disappear...

don’t! don’t depart, don't dare disappear,

démence? demenz? desired! desired dear

deepening dependence, deepening devotion.

dancing, dying, delightful dance

defying delirium, defying doubts

DAWN

dialogue damaged, desperately denying decline

distinguished docs diagnose, decide

done? done, dusted, denial, done!

darkness descends, distressed, depressed

de-stress, de-stress deserved de-stress

devoted darlings delivering daffodils

drying dew, dandelions due

dusk, dawn, daylight dweller

dazzling, delicate, dovelike demeanor

dreams decoded, divine, divine dearest dreamer
