NaPoWriMo 6
I’m taking time to start my catch up as I’ve had the opportunity to spend a couple of hours on one computer that I’m familiar with. But this time draws to a close so I think this will be my last post for today. All of which has nothing to do with today’s poem.
It’s about not being interested and what the consequences might be of not challenging that status.
Not interested
It seems a shocking thing to admit
But
I’m just not interested.
I’m reassessing which is a sensible thing to do.
I’m re-appraising,
Re-considering,
Reviewing,
The prefix emphasising I’ve done these things before;
Which I have, many times.
But no matter in which direction I approach it
In what frame of mind
Whatever my physical or mental state
Whether quickly or via tortuous consideration
Exposition or introspection
I’m just not interested.
An uncomfortable conclusion;
It implies
Nay, strongly suggests
No. States.
I need to do something about it.
Moreover, that something
Can’t be self-destructive
Can’t be self-defeating
Can’t be forgotten about
Or, and this is my favourite
Thought about some more.
All of which run counter to previous behaviour.
Because it won’t go away
Until I do something that
Interests me.
Oh, good grief. Sounds entirely too familiar. Sigh.
