you can act a certain way
and i'll respond in a fairly predictable way
the only thing i find unpredictable is quantum theory and particle acceleration experiments
being smarter than me means you see things from a higher perspective
i avoid eye contact with everyone in public areas 80% of the time i am in public areas
i have settled for nothing inside of a screen that displays information to my face
this is what 'writers block' feels like
i don't believe in 'writers block' because all you need to do to write is write down your thoughts and i never don't have thoughts
maybe 'seller's block' is more apt
but lately i feel like writing something is stupid
because every day i could write the same thing
and this is what that thing could be
i click on gmail
i click on word documents
i click on firefox
i click on myspace
i click on my blog
i click on statcounter
i click on other blogs
i click on facebook
i click on live journal
i click on thesaurus.com
i stare at the computer screen
i click on all of those things again
i write copy
i read a novel
i feel bored and stop reading the novel
i boil water and watch the water
i make tea
i stare at the computer screen
i click on more of the same things
i click on them again
i click on microsoft word
i write one line of a poem and save it as the line i just wrote
i look at my cell phone
i click the one line of a poem word document
i write another line
i think 'i suck at writing, i don't have real talent'
i close the word document
i feel anxiety about money
i feel a generalized anxiety about everything
i try to understand my thoughts
i give up immediately
i click on gmail
i click on msn instant messenger
i look at my coworkers and feel alienated
i go to the library
i click on things
i stare at the computer screen
i feel annoyed
this happens for two hours
i walk home
i stare at the computer screen
i turn on my space heater
i tell the cat to go away
i feel anxiety about not giving the cat what it wants from me
i think 'i don't know what to do with myself; right now, and in my whole life'
i think 'there won't ever be anything different than this'
i eat fruits and vegetables
i eat hummus with olive bread
i get drunk
i play video games
i avoid the computer screen
i feel extreme anxiety about the internet
i talk to my roommate
i walk to the store
i look at people
i spend money on alcohol
i use my credit card
i go home
i stare at my computer screen
i click on gmail
i click on myspace
i click on facebook
i click on livejournal
i click on statcounter
i look at my bed
i look at my space heater
my watch beeps
i look at my cell phone
i feel anxiety about being disinterested in other people's blogs
i block everyone on gmail chat except for people i never chat with
i change my status to 'appear offline' on msn messenger
i smoke a cigarette
i wonder if i will ever make any friends in seattle
i feel anxiety about my parents
i feel like im not doing enough to appease my family
i click on youtube
i open up microsoft word
i write two sentences of a story
i close microsoft word
i piss
i look at myself in the mirror
i avoid making eye contact with myself in the mirror
i look at the cat
i stare at the computer screen
i think about joining real life more
i look at my novels
i feel like there is no way i will ever read them
i feel anxiety about doing nothing
i try to think of what i would rather be doing
i think about sex
i think that there is no one i know that i would want to have sex with
i think about drinking with friends
i think i would like to do that if i had friends
i cant think of anything i would rather be doing in my current situation
i think about how to get out of my current situation
i look at the computer screen
i click on things
and then this would be the second part of the poem
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
there is nothing in my reality that i feel i want enough to try
i will refrain from writing these poems every day
i don't want to write those every day
