Hey little spider climbing up the fret towards the plectrum
How do you find the energy to climb toward my hand,
Taking in vibration, sound, so full of every spectrum,
When I have no energy to care, or try to understand.
Bored to my skin with notes that ripple off my swollen fingers,
While no one listens to the strum, bored with my held back skill,
That little spider climbs the fret, with energy that lingers,
I'd kick my way to interest, if I could find the will.
Teach me a lesson spider of how boredom is surpressed,
Bored to my soul, with all your spider wisdom, I would soar,
Into perspectives hidden from me, count my fortune blessed,
And perhaps could get beyond it, and forget that life's a bore.

BOREDOM
Sitting all alone one day
Wondering what to do
Picked up a pen and found myself
In the land of Kharmantou
The Kharmantou
by J.R. Lewis
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
by Ed Coet
BOREDOM
When time is stagnate and the world is on hold.
When feelings of anxiousness emanate from the
search for something
by B.D. Bolin
the clock ticks away in my ears
scarring the silence that's bored me to tears
no one is calling, no emails to read
something
by arbian
Looking at my bedroom wall
Counting the flowers in the pattern
Watching endless people drifting past my window
Seeing the trees
