Poetry: Boredom

My life is rich and
Tastes like monotony peanut butter
Sticking to the roof of my mouth
Keeping my tongue busy and words adhesive
Diverting my attentions
Robbing me of focus

And Everyday's details blend in blah
Swishing to a gunky swallow
I choke on time and
Spit out the unground nuts
Boring myself with facts

The edges to day are lost to me
It is one long minute
One heavy breathing experience
I am not hungry, I grow tired
Of this meal
I am done with it

I want no more...

    DEEP SIGH

    In the middle of the sea, where the skies are gray;

    Marking the calendar, just counting my days.

    Nights are short,
