it becomes so mind-numbing,
these thoughts that flow away.
No epiphanies today
with little or nothing less to do, or say.
This same sunrise starts coming,
rising each and every day
in the same old way.
I am forever thumbing
my nose at this life
wondering the how or where
that does end such a strife.
It becomes simply mind-numbing
waiting on the day
when it will all change,
somehow to rearrange
what I want
versus what I get.
And yet,
for some unknown reason
I just won't quit.
At least it's mind-numbing.
