doing nothing

you think about
doing nothing
for awhile.
nothing.
quitting work,
calling it a life.
you ponder being done
with it all.
you have enough
to cruise on,
so why not.
you've piled up
a nice
heap of dough.
why put up with
the day in and day
out of work
with all its worries
and problems.
when people
ask you, what are you
up to, you'll smile
and say,
absolutely nothing.
sleeping, eating.
resting. reading.
having a drink
with someone. I'm
catching rays
at the beach.
how are you?
