carpe sweat pants

poetry

if i lived life
as fervently as i do virtually
then the world would twice be mine

instead:

i feel productive if
i watch that netflix movie i’ve
had for one month.

maybe today’s the day

but it’s not likely.

    but you eeked out a poem…
    This is written as if someone had been watching me loafing on my couch the last 2 weeks. We must rejoice that this applies to so many Americans, for, if charged with all the ambition and energy to meet their potential, we might conquer too many lands, delve into God’s scientific expertise and make too many reality tv shows. Long live a socially acceptable level of slothfulness!
