Are You There?

Do you ever look around and find yourself suddenly having nothing to do? That may sound outrageous in this time and age of devices and mechanisms, which can totally occupy your time, but I'm speaking of having something worthy, time-consuming, worthwhile like a project of sorts.

I find myself there sometimes when I become ‘stuck’ in my brain with an on-going event and need something fresh and new. If you’re like me and some others I know, you bore quickly. If you lose interest, you throw it aside like dirty laundry… ready for something fresh, clean NEW! You may have plenty to do in your ‘now’ pile, but you need to begin a ‘then’ basket. Just an inkling, an idea, a burst of excitement to spur yourself on; give you incentive; stir up your creative juices.
Well, unfortunately, I’m there!

Unfinished

I just don’t know what to do with myself

I don’t know just what to do with myself

I piddle and piddle and twiddle my thumbs

Cause I just am not through with myself

Seems I’m more than this

Seems I’m bored with this

And can’t find my comfort zone

Seems my life’s not full

And my plate is half empty

And my actions are foreign and unknown

Seems I possess so much more

Than what’s visible to the eye

Unconceivable, can’t be put into words

Seems people can’t understand

What’s inside me is vast

Its enormity, a magnitude so absurd

You see, we all have

Untapped territories

that are in need

of a little purging

I pray when I’m

finally pricked,

My safe harbor

will dissipate

with urging

I just don’t know what to do with my self

I don’t know just what to do with myself

My day may end, but my mind begins again

As someday I’ll get through to myself
