Unexplained Monopoly-

Shoes and clothes all on the floor; Video game cartridges piled high from the ceiling to the door; Music blaring no one's listening; Cuz too old to hear the old the age you are open doors; Won't you come open doors Walk the line stand by me You'll be fine I'll show you life as it should be I'll liberate you come walk the line Won't you come to open doors Walk the line stand by me You'll be fine I'll show you life as it should be a liberate you and then walk the line Polished china in the kitchen cabinet Walking came in the corner no not having it Got up late dentures in the jar Scared hoping I won't I will not fall Got to go downstairs to get in the car All the rules you yet to find you complain about them all No one listens to you you're fighting you crawl The world too can be the other centurion We too are discriminated walk with me talk with me I'll tell you about your history You and I can cry together while we both embrace our misery Open doors won't you come walk the line stand by me You'll be fine I'll show you life as it should be I liberate you and then I'm free Unexplained Monopoly

I remember when my Grandpa got dementia, he always thought people were moving things on him. He got paranoid and irritated. A tough disorder for all involved. It can lead to some comic situations though.
