I'm bored with now

I'm bored with now.
this moment right here;
this single pause in the
ever constant flow of life
is what bores me.
i'm tired of now.
why can't it be then
or two hours ago
or even tomorrow?
why can't now disappear
and why isn't it over
and why oh why
does now flow endlessly on?
always into next week 
and later next month
and no matter what
I'm stuck in now.
No matter how
there is no jumping
through time
