Look! There're These Odd Thoughts

Rating: 5.0


that at first gnaw at you
and follow
these odd feelings
of incompletion
and dissatisfaction.

They are feelings
of wanting
to do something
that interfere
with the thoughts
of how useless
the doing may be.

Yet you think,
and the thinking is
the bothersome thing,
the world will go on
with or without you
and it is that last realization
that keeps you going
after those feelings
of lack of purpose.

You finally get up
after a night of tossing.
Saunter to the kitchen
for your first coffee cup of the day
as it percolates
in your coffee machine
but in my case
I must first turn on my PC.

It has developed a personality
of its own
and needs at least 4 minutes
to warm up
to the idea
of my sitting in front of it.
