Another day gone.

lossnature

Another day gone.

There is languor

A feeling

Slowly developing

Into lethargy

A lassitude

An attitude of apathy

Less than pleasant

As drowsiness

Overlaps with indolence

Fading into fatigue

A fugue state

Without the flight

From reality

A seizure can

Be too complex

To be seen

As the brain winds down

Inactivity

Dulls the senses

A double bind

When torpor

Is the last thing

On your mind

Even as eyes close

For a catnap

What happens

In absence

A recharge

Or a gentle drift into

Sloth.
