there are hours of silence
when you are not near
riding somewhere above ground
in bullet trains
screeching over the tracks.
i think about nothing.
for many days now,
i've been able to stare blankly at walls
and think about nothing.
today i am lying on my bed
and i feel overly excited reading facebook statuses
but after i exit out of the page
i continue to stare back at the walls
and think about nothing.
right now i'm scrunching up my face
and smiling maniacally at my reflection
in a metal spoon.
and i feel like there are no real thoughts in my head.
You are not alone.
ReplyDeleteBah, I've been feeling like this a lot lately too.

ReplyDeleteYou are in a state of constant meditation. Men, women, have spent decades of their lives trying to achieve this state of being.
ReplyDeleteRollerfink, thank you.
ReplyDeleteK. I like the way "metal spoon thoughts sounds"
maybe i'll rename the poem. idk.
Erin&Alexandra, <3
its been a long time since i've felt this... i'd almost welcome blank-wall-nothing thoughts. i think.
