A man with no purpose

A man with no purpose

Too lazy even to drink
too bored even to bitch
too done even to remember
what he’d meant to make.

No one cares.
Nobody minds.
He leaves them alone.
It is kind of fun to get big eyes
and lean into a friend, all soft
with concern for the poor guy.

One more day here and there
I’ve quit believing in you
in what you said
It isn’t for me to say
but everybody knows
you’re done
a has been has at least
something to look back upon
something to smile distantly
about when what was’s raised
