Ine;
you're truly endeavored into a subject matter that is actually very touching and sincerely moving.
Your imagination in this poem is very innovative and unique along with being very creative and inventive all your imagery is collectively descriptive and brilliantly expressive throughout your poem.
Your non-rhyming quatrains in this free verse are very well and are easy to read as well as easy to understand.
The explanations and defining portraiture Of the so-called idiot taking a bath was very definitive.
Thank you for sharing am posting this for everyone to read and made the Lord be with you always.

I think idiot is a little bit of a harsh word for a mentally ill person... But I like the run of your thoughts with descriptive words giving a step by step therapy.

Oh how sad and beautiful in a poignant way....I saw a stroke victim able to throw a ball with water therapy ...he had not been able to move his left side but the water and caring therapists and his son worked with him daily...the progress was amazing...and yes the water was warm
God bless

I use to work at a mental hospital many years ago and I was taught and told to bath some of them and I could see their personality change if only for a while,
I like the photo you choose for your poem.

Comment from Jean Lutz
A very sad poem that for me took on a meaning even more spiritual than physical. I applied it to worship -- going into a church or synagogue once a week. Becoming renewed -- yet having the renewal wear off almost as soon as the building is left, or in this case as soon as they get out of the tub. Even some places of worship can pour on the cold water. Profound piece of poetry that really moved me.

Yes Robina, a sad reality, aging is no picnic, and when we are depending on nurses etc it must be so difficult to have a quality in your day. A very frightening prospect to envision.
You have written your free style poem very well.
Well done

Scary, Ine. Very scary in that it could happen to any of us.
Both my parents spent their last year or so in nursing homes. When I walked down those wide antiseptic hallways I could see old people in a catatonic state, staring into nowhere, or is it everywhere.
It's as though one of those old phonograph records is stuck on a certain track, winding around, around, around, and around.
If it ever happens to me, I hope I'm stuck in a good period of my past life. There have been far too many times it's been the converse, my personal vision of hell.
