Who Cares

She sat huddled in her own skin
hugging herself from within
while rain pummeled the roof
on this cold and windy night
her mind had lost its sight

Her thoughts ran round in circles
they couldn't be reined in
trying hard to focus on one matter
instead she felt like a mad hatter
might as well just let them all scatter

Who cares about  lousy TV
everything is useless even poetry
things are neither black or white
but some shade of grayish blight
caught in the muddle of too trite


Time to get up off her arse
stop acting like her life's a farce
heartfelt prayer Lord won't scorn
go to sleep and come the morn
a fine new attitude will be born

Ah yes. If we could only control out attitudes as well as we would like to. C'est la vie.

You expressed how I feel much more eloquently than I could. I am there with you right now. All I want to do is sleep to avoid the world. Love, Janet

Tomorrow will be born fresh no matter what challenges it will pose to you. One must get off his arses. Wonderful and rather intertaining poem. GBQ

Who cares? The Lord does; I do. :)

A most entertaining write, and the sun will shine tomorrow. Brimming with humor and hope. Well done!

This is how I feel this morning. Tired but I slept all night. I think it's spring fever.

Your poem gives us a chance to know others are lik us. You make it a group meeting so I'll just bet you provoked a lot of thinking with this poem..

Well now, I do believe that you have the right solution to the drudgery of the sort you have described herein,, sleep, waking to a new day. I quite understand the sentiment behind these words, sometimes we just have to ask ourselves, "What's going on here?"

Excellent attitude, Eileen! Put flame to a vanilla-scented candle, watch the shadows dance on the wall, snuff it, and dream in vivid design.
