DOLCE FAR NIENTE

                DOLCE FAR NIENTE




Good morning, Sun,
Good morning, day,
Another day of dolce far niente,
Sweet life of doing nothing,
in which I do more than
ever before because it’s coming

From  the core and it’s what
I want to do, no longer frizzed out,
following someone else’s frenetic,
feckless orders, no longer strapped
into a system designed to make
miserable as many people as possible.
. 
Now, quiet, calm, alone, I hear
the sound of the sea, the song
of the muse; and peace comes
dripping steady, slow; and energy,
sweet energy,  higher rides
as fusion waxes, fission wanes.
