Boredom: A Story

This article is an IllogiReal.

• If there's gold in those hills just look above,
• And peace is a falcon as well as a dove,
• Could be that three plus three is seven,
• Or that hell is up, and down is heaven,

• Maybe I'm just looking too much into this
• You can't be logical, call it hers or his
• When I'm bored I write a poem
• It's a better way to know 'em
• Than to spend time conversing over tea
• Ooh, it's be me!
• Ooh, surely me!

• Now it's watching three episodes on TV
• Surely me!
• Two or three or four confessions
• When there's light there is digression
• And boredom is the friend of all humanity

• Oh the hue-manatee!

• Let's not be beating 'round the bush, while we cut up our own hair
• And let's eat an apple, and orange or a pear
• Would it that be?
• Surely be me!

• No it's not you... you see... it's me!

• And a million times I said that thing again
• While there's love and thoughts and minks and stoats and men
• Can't be nothing, surely me!
• But just reality
• And boredom's the weakness of humanity

• Ee ee!
