poem: bored at work send help

Jan 26, 2012 16:01

slowly
           sinking
into
                       stultifying
    boredom.
Check my phone; nothing
new.
A text gets no reply.
Fingers tap on keyboard,
too light for words;
too dull for interest.
I
          sink
and
                  do not try
             to
swim.

poetry, my poetry, bored at work send help

Can I just say, I love the sinking imagery you create when placing the words apart like at the beginning and end.

Generally really like this one. A text gets no reply so much implied I think.
