Craving Boredom

I haven't had any
in so long, I've forgotten
what boredom is exactly
but I know busy is rotten.

No time to write
or even think of writing
and my car driving lonely
is much more than inviting

tantalizing, beckoning
to be aimless, having nowhere to go
but to silence and sheer boredom
to let my creativity flow.

Life is much
and I'm little
from one extreme to another
not passing middle.

Shaking the bartender's hand
I drank as fast as he poured 'em
and we talked about the simple life
craving boredom.
