Thursday Poem by Andrus Cassian

Thursday



What on earth did I have in mind last night
What on earth did I hope to accomplish
Oh I'm sorry I left you in the dark
I spent all my precious time yesterday
attempting to turn my Wednesday
back into a glorious Tuesday
but it did a double take
now I'm just sitting here on Thursday
killing time
well getting killed by time
I've just sat for hours
playing a game of thumb war
with Casper
I've sat here for hours
just staring at a flickering screen
while my conscious screams 'GET UP'
but get up and go where
I have no where to go
It takes an hour walk
to even reach the hustle of city life
and even then I'm going nowhere
except to walk around in a circle
to head home again
I guess I am a contradiction in a sense
I am an embodiment of fun and merriment
but all I want to do
lose myself in the forest of my cover
rest my head on my pillow of ice
take a trip to a blank wonderland of nothing
or to dream of randomness
that terrifies and sparks my awake
How do people find me intriguing
I will forever wonder
but I'll wonder another day
What's today
Thursday
I guess I'll leave
and spend my day just being out there
I love just being out there
and I guess I deserve to be alone
Eh, I don't know
Repetition
I don't really know much these days
I'm a needle in a haystack
I'm a no one in a crowd full of people
I'm just a headache on sunny day
I'm just a bunch of metaphors without a simile
so I'll take my leave and just breathe
