rarely am i bored with you

they say

only boring people get bored.

i beg

to differ.

i can ride my bike about

ten miles

and then

i'm bored

and have to get off.

i've seen enough.

an hour in the pool

splashing around

and i

want to get out

and lie on a chair.

an hour

later

i have to walk

and skip stones

in the lake. if i'm bored

with tv,

i can easily turn it off,

if i'm bored with a book

i throw

it across the room,

if i'm

bored with a tuna caserole,

i dump

it all in the trash.

i'm bored with many things,

many many

things,

but never, or should i say,

rarely am i ever

bored with you.
