For years I slept on, or rather visited, for a few weeks at a time, my bed in my home.
On that bed I had a memory foam mattress.
The problem with memory a foam mattress is that if you don’t sleep on it for any length of time, a few weeks touring with your band for instance, the memory foam mattress forgets who you are.
Memory foam is obviously short-term memory only.
And when my mattress got older, it suffered from complete amnesia.
Which somehow is a metaphor of life.
