I Remember When

I could run for a bus without losing my breath.
If someone cursed me behind the wheel I'd curse right back and flash the finger.
I could refold road maps without having a panic attack.
I could pronounce coagulate without hurting my jaw.
I didn't suck in my stomach for speed dating.
I could scratch my back without throwing out my shoulder.
 I'd gracefully exit any vehicle.
I could practice kissing on my arm without drooling.
I could open any jar on the spot.
I never missed the bowl.
Yes, I remember when I'd clear my throat and people would listen up. Now they hand me thick mucus absorbing tissue and move away.
