Losing My Marbles

Not Just Conceptual Art

Losing My Marbles

When I retired
Back in 2005
Artist friend
Thad Beal
Gave me a
Set of marbles
Came in a box
Nested in velvet
In case of mental emergency
Title on the cover
Amusing at the time
Significance didn’t
Really sink in
Clever conceptual piece
Duchamp perhaps
Assisted Readymade
Like 50 CCs
Of Paris air
Lately however
Sure makes sense
Not just art
Bit by bit
Losing it
More and more
Good to have backup
