The Wild Woman on Senility

[Hallmark's Maxine creator is John Wagner
copyright Hallmark Licensing Corp.]

Wild Woman walks
into the video store.
Chooses a movie
that looks interesting.

"Have I rented
this before?"
she asks.

Pause.

"Yes. Last week."

Totally no recollection.

Sigh.

Wild Woman
takes a pass
on renting
a movie.

Apparently,
she really
only needs
one movie -
and, come to
think of it,
one book!
and she
has one
of each
at home.
