In a mooching mood

July 24, 2015 By Ellen

A hamster
Even he’s got off the hamster wheel

Restless. Pacing. Rest less.

Rest more.

Sigh.

What’s on telly?

Nothing. Everything. What do you want?

A solution. The answer. The question. Who knows?

Hungry. Empty. I can’t get no… what?

Check the Internet.

Scrolling, scrolling, scrolling. Rawhide. And seek.

But where?

I don’t know what to do. Right now. With myself.

Specifically. Much.

A list. To-do or not to do. Ha!

Sitting. Standing. Tiptoes. Heels.

Itch, scratch. Yawn. Yawning void. Avoid the yawn.

Up, down. But I’m tired, how can this be? Huh?

There’s a book to read. In fact, there are hundreds. Up there.

Annoying lines of spines, and words. And dust. Pah.

Concentration flies. Through the glass, people pass. Dogs, joggers.

Doing a lap. With a dog. A lap dog?

So. Maybe a run will do it. Exercise for endorphins, or something.

Or nothing. Sigh. My trainers are up stairs.

And, in any case, it’s raining.
