Dream Songs 14

Life,　friends,　is boring.　We must not say so.

After all,　the sky flashes,　the great sea yearns,

we ourselves flash and yearn,

and moreover my mother told me as a boy

(repeatingly)　Ever to confess you're bored

means you have no

Inner Resources.　I conclude now I have no

inner resources,　because I am heavy bored.

Peoples bore me,

literature bores me,　especially great literature,

Henry bores me,　with his plights &　gripes

as bad as achilles,

who loves people and valiant art,　which bores me.

And the tranquil hills,　&　gin,　look like a drag

and somehow a dog

has taken itself &　its tail considerably away

into mountains or sea or sky,　leaving

behind:　me,　wag.
