Languorous Lingering

Waiting practices upon the waiting party
Exercising its ability to bring things into a stasis
The kind of stall that can only be borne if reason applies to the time
Yet waiting prefigures to prevent such reason
Seeking to stop the entirety, not a pause
For the waiting may seek
But waiting will find
A way to induce the boredoms of humankind
The methods to make time feel as if it were wasted
While there is no other way to spend it
A slot machine that none could ever win
But one cannot help but pull
And this party of one
Does have recourse
For to let time linger
To become waiting
Rather than to be waiting
To stay without progress
Can be a decision
A fate to love
As earnestly as fortune
Then waiting becomes being
A staying in a place that is the epitome of space
A void that is filled by you, yourself
Your place in this space
Ought not to be a responsibility
It's rather a pleasure
A place to relax
Waiting will still often get the upper hand
For it's a powerful force
And Godot isn't coming
But we who wait
Are not lost
