Stand still and let your boss or whoever
is in charge argue for the third time of
The day
Stand still and let overthinking do it's
dance face little thing
Stand still in the grocery store asking
for Something by the drug store
toothpaste.
You remember you came for or was it
Your mother you act in a hurry,
Stand still and look in the face of
Your old school mate but you don't call
Mate just someone you saw no "hey
whats up?" Or girl talk yet you
remember them by eye and memory.
Stand still and let the phone hang up
For the second time
Stand still and have what you'll say copy
and paste printed already out,
Stand still and aks your self the same
three questions think the same three
questions when do you really know?
Stand still and think motivation or this
Year am going to do something instead
Of thinking instead of standing still
Stand still and breathe that today is
Sunday and tomorrow will be Monday
And that you don't want to go anywhere
But you have to
Stand still and think the dishes would
Wash by themselves
And the cramp will go away once I keep
Complaining about how I cannot move
My string of an arm thats out of reach
for you for me
Stand still and feel the cool night breeze
Quiet out but not so quiet outside
because the neighbors cat are fighting
again, a fire truck booming through
and then there's the water pump
cutting off grumbling to you, reminding
you that
you need to move despite everything
Stand still and write I've probably used
despite three times now, two in this
poem 1 before.
