Thursday still.
April 7th 2009 15:52
I sat at home alone
On Thursday night and thought
Carefully about
What everyone else was doing.
They came and went
And went and came
And still I thought.
The radio fluttered
In the background of
My consciousness,
Letting me know there was
Something there.
But I knew that already.
How could I not know?
When they face me down
And hold me still. I
Do notice, though I
Do nothing.
It ticks too fast and
Echoes in my ears til
It drives me mad. I
Can see the clock and
I watch it but don’t move.
By Friday morning,
Little has changed.

but I don't see many people laughing.
I quite like the thoughts behind this poem. I quite like the poem itself. And I don't like much poetry on Orble. Most people on here can't write poetry for shit.
Teresa's asleep and I'm very lonely tonight, so I'm just reading Orble posts. Is there a difference between loneliness and boredom?

Have you ever read Roland Leach's poem "The Drowning of Ophelia (the madness poems)? It's one of my favourite poems of all time.
