Sun Rays on Sundays

Monotone, far from chrome, yet it fills my home.

The light is grey or it is orange.

Orange is unnatural.
Grey is dull, washed, the day, a lull

Meaningless music drowns itself into white noise, while my eyes slow to a poise.

Fixated.

A stack of books, motionless ornaments, a glass of water warping light around it, distorting the image it obstructs.

Time persists, yet it drags,
drags me down,

Of course I'm exaggerating,
that doesn't stop me from procrastinating.

-Oliver Purnell
