Have you ever been

Bored to tears

The words of a speaker

In and out your ears?

This, you see, often happens to me,

And when it does,

I write poetry.

Have you ever been

Unable to focus

Concentration resistant

Simply unfocused

This, too, often happens to me,

So when it does

I write poetry.

So keep this in mind

As you read and read

These poems were born

Of boredom, distraction

Sometimes with eyes

Only open a fraction.
