Boredom Strikes

Honestly, I am pressed for this write
And even though you may not like it
I am going to make this poem rhyme

Something random is what you ask
But now that I am thinking
It's become a difficult task

I can not think of a damn thing to say
There really isnt anything coming to mind
Yet, here I am, typing a poem anyway

Although it may not be what you like
I suppose it is a bit random
If you dont like it, take a hike

I was bored beyond boredom
Yes it does seem silly
But I'm having fun

Now here you go
It isnt a novel
So dont blow your load

Author notes

LMAO, I really was bored and then I saw this contest... I didnt have a darn clue what to write about so I just started typing what I honestly started feeling. Hope you liked it, but if not.. oh well, it was fun and took some of the boredom away.

And thanks to a friend for the title!!

    Being pressed, rising to the challenge, you've done well with this subject, once more making boredom interesting, even keeping the form of three-line stanzas with lines of variable length. it gets better toward the end where in the last four lines it's really entertaining.

    Hellow lucifersmistress666. If this is you pressing to write a poem, I envy you! This poem's 'voice' is so clear. Rhyme is fun- Sometimes. lol.

    Your second stanza is well written. It is compact and witty; but my favorite part of your poem is the next stanza.

    A free flow of thought often can be kick started by starting a motion (such as you did with this one by typing first) and seeing what happens. This can be a wise and productive way to write poetry, and this stanza affirms it!

    Thanks for an enjoyable read. ~Clay.

    Brutality

    The poem was good but not meshing with your title. I fail to see the connection between random contrivances and something to smile about. Perhaps a renaming to something like: 'Alone with my thoughts' or 'Boredom Strikes'
