Oh, Today, Well…

I need

perhaps

a break from this

it’s getting all too much

my laziness can’t take it

I’m designed for

nothing

designed to wallow 

flit about

prance into empty rooms and beg to be noticed 

I need

perhaps

a day off

a week off

a year off

a life-off

I’m stupid 

I know

but I’d rather face nothing than be burdened with seeing everything 

and still

being forced to see

everything

I will

always

choose to see

nothing

One of the finest qualities I just might possess. 

One thought on “Oh, Today, Well…

  1. Wow, this is total class. The wisdom, the isolation and the dejection threaded through this is well paced and delivered. There is certain natural emotion about it that I find compelling. Thank you.
