The Plight of Someone Bored

Oh the plight of someone bored.

It's so indescribable that it's sad.

It's hard to pretend to be interested in something you are not.

I don't know personally but it just might be easier to fake an orgasm.

Can I trade a real orgasm to be relieved of this suffering?

No? I guess I have to fake interest.

Monotony is a curse but it can be somewhat liberating.

Isn't it parallel, maybe synchronous to detachment?

Twin brothers, monotony and detachment, opposite in nature.

But they have different fathers, how? Go figure.

Detachment is sought, it's gratifying, it's a state.

Monotony is enforced, it grows on you like a leech, it's captivating, but for the wrong reason.

If I wasn't so bored I would have talked about brother detachment.

But oh the plight of someone bored, it's so indescribable that it's sad.

Monotony is dangerous; it usually leads to something destructive.

But one can tame this misleading feeling and try to be constructive.

Giving credit where it is due though, one good thing monotony does lead to is that it lets your mind wander.

If your mind is lazy and not a wanderer then you might as well get buried, cremated, or eaten by vultures.

Or sleep and let your soul run wild.

If your mind is a wanderer then the world becomes your playground.

Monotony lets me be an athlete, it lets me have sex with every girl I want over and over, it lets me eat all I want and I don't get fat, and the playground gets more and more toys!

But let's not go overboard here, fantastical and imaginative thinking need not be fathered by monotony alone.

Hell, monotony doesn't let one be vivid, the latter is a flush to rid the shit that monotony is.

I look around and some are asleep, some are faking interest, some are nymphomaniacs and monotony doesn't affect them.

Today I was able to get something good out of monotony, other times I am destructive, or is it the other way around?

All that said and done monotony burns out, it's exhaustive and that's a good thing.It keeps us fresh and mobile. Atleast our mind should be grateful.

Monotony is kicking in as I write, time to end.

So is monotony indescribable?

Piece of it yes, maybe all of it.

But it's a great vehicle.

It got me from hollowness to my imagination, it didn't charge very much except some time.

Now I am bored of being bored.

Oh the plight of someone bored.

It's so interesting that I just might want to be always bored.
