POEM STARTER

Compose a poem about the lost art of boredom.

Are we missing out on the beauty of being bored?

Still Silence.

There was a time when

A thing called bor-ed-om

Existed


Sometimes I wonder how

It would be now, to have

It once more


The silent anticipation of

Finding something to do


But accidentally passing

The time by trying to

Figure it out


Sitting in a chair or on

The floor looking up to

The ceiling as if


It could give us any kind

Of idea, as if it cared at

All


Then having your bones

Ache and groan for laying

Around for so long


Other than just getting

Up and living


β€”Oh, the times


I suppose there’s a

Reason the past is

Left where it is.
