languishing in August

I haven’t posted poetry up here much because I want this my stuff to be eventually published. I figured this one was sufficiently mediocre to post on this weblog…

oh dreary summer

i could waste away

lounging in your river of apathy

although the better term for it would be:

drowning

dips so long in the nothing

that i forget to eat

forget to live

yes, i should

get up

They do not move.
