The depths of boredom
I glanced outside. I'm bored
The dreams began. Self assured
Show some pride. I looked inside.
But I had none. Long past being heard.
Feed the plants! Shrouded in shoots.
I had fed some. Isn't time to work.
Imagine summer. Clouds are stunting the sky.
I'm tired and glum. Breath in. Breath out.
Pick yourself up. Getting heavy like a magnet.
A little numb. Blocked energy.
Watch the trends. Absorbing me.
Make me feel dumb. I'll listen anyway.
Eat your fill. I'm already full.
Bloated like gum. Hugs a plenty
Be grateful
I'm just a bmm
Music,art?
Sure I'll draw a plum.
