myAlzheimer's dog -SALERIAN POEM
My Alzheimer's Dog
My beloved dog
Gus Mr. unhappy
Grumpy looks
Wrinkled face
Bored very bored
‘Go read a book
Jog around the house
Watch television
Stop the sad looks’
I command
Then look
In the mirror
Disgusted I feel
I look like Gus
Gus doesn't change
We visit our vet
Methodical
Meticulous
Tough questions
Place time memory
What I ate
When I began feeling this way
Why troubled by boredom
Wrinkled face
Grumpy looks
I lose patience
Slap the man
Demand answers
“I ‘ve bad news”
The doctor says
“ Problem is not Gus
Problem is you
You're brain
Youre confused
The dog is you
Your sick brain
Here is a pill
For Alzheimer's’’

Brother
Who?
Who is?
Who is good?
I say
A man
A good man
A friend
Who, why, how?
From what kingdom?
From what tribe
family genus species?
A man from Ararat exploring oil in Texas
Never bitter under siege
Building bridges
Quantum discoveries
Healing wars
Compassion action and grace
Yes grace
Grace is you brother
You are the man
You
A brother
A great man

jfk and jr AND A SHIPA Ship On A Mountain
ALEN J Salerian MD
A passenger on a boat
Life is passing by
A traveler on board
I’m watching waves
She is moving north
Slowly crawling
Cimbing descending
Steep rugged hills
Aren’t supposed to be on a boat”
A young voice asks
“What is this mountain?”
“Let Captain take us
Drive us to glory”
Dad answers
“But boats don't last long
On mountains
I want off “ mother screams
I'm watching my dreams
“I'm scared “the boy says
“Captain knows best”
A lawyer asserts
The ship is cracking
Rush of water
And dread
I'm awake
Thank God
It's a dream
Reminiscent of my life

Einstein Says Your Brain Is An Electrical Factory
Einstein
trusted his prefrontal cortex more than his vision realizing human senses could
alter our perception of reality. Human brain is an electrical factory that produces
energy products of senses pain and thoughts.
Both
clinical and neuroimaging evidence suggest in depression and schizophrenia both
associated with decline of prefrontal cortex function there is diminished
production of emotions and thoughts. Interestingly the same thing is true for
chronic pain. Chronic pain causes thalamic decline of energy metabolism and
less production of pain.
What
is the take-home message?
Our
brain is an electrical factory an add and unnerving thought but true.
