Cool Poem by Smoky Hoss
Cool
'Sometimes nothing can be a real cool hand.'
- Paul Newman from 'Cool Hand Luke'
The evidence being insufficient
foran indicative
capitulation into lassitude
one is left to render via repression
the act of pure patience
as a dignified design
toward a cultured coolness
of doing absolutely nothing
as if it were the grandest task
of an enlightened genius.
... and perhaps,
that's just what it is...

A million cliche'd sayings come to mind.. I wholely agree that the desire and ability to do Nada is a mark of genius. OK, I'll give in.. A body at rest tends to stay at rest. There, now that I've done it, I will retire, shame-faced- back to doing NOTHING much!
