Boredom
This is my nineteenth dark poem in the series inspired by Dharrsheena.

This is my nineteenth dark poem in the series inspired by Dharrsheena.
This is a sonnet about how destructive boredom can be
The music I have chosen is The Buzzcocks' "Boredom" from their "Spiral Scratch" EP
π€ππ€ππ€ππ€ππ€ππ€π
Boredom Ossifies Turns Thoughts To Stone
What Was Once Your Flesh Now Turns To Bone
Once You Could Move But Now Statuesque
Your Blood Now Is Gone, You Are Grotesque
π
Boredom Stopped You Dead, Right In Your Tracks
Your Body Now Is Your Soulβs Stone Casque
You Want To Scream Your Body Is Dead
Your Mind Is Still Here, Life Force Is Bled
π
Boredom Killed You, Itβs Yours Forever
A Life Of Pain, Salvation Never
Now Nothing Will Change, Always The Same
Boredom Made You Lose This Deadly Game
π
You Are Nothing Now Your Self Is Gone
But The Pain Stays Burning On And On

Ooooo, I love being bored because it's so blissful, lol! But I loved seeing the dark side of boredom. Really scary. Loved your poem!
This is great. Well done.
As always a great read.
Splendid!!! Left a heart!!!
Great job my friend. Boredom can be the great motivator unfortunately to do either good or bad. But when inescapable it can be exactly as you have described.
Amazing π€© hearted brother
