Best Lethargic Poems
The Weight of a Lethargic Cloud
gloom drags me into the blueness of
boredom since you've been gone
and i don't see how i'll ever snap out of it

Knowing I Am Killing Myself
I sit and I sit and I sit again,
Wondering why my neck hurts
And my body is losing her elasticity.
Eating brownies for fuel, knowing I am killing myself
Softly, and in a luxuriously relaxing way.
The brownies are gone, but I am not satisfied,
So I reach for the potato chips.
They are salty and crunchy
And help me swallow the
Sweet...

Lethargic Air
Lethargy holds life broken, dream notions molded
and harshly sits heavy, deeply within my chest.
Glum stillness chokes fresh, moving air until listless
inside pale walls too groggy-bleak to bear witness.
Hung languor peaks indifference with vehemence
while the outside world circles null with endlessness.

Stimulation: Into the Lane of Lethargic Lamentation
[Before you read, here's something you should know. Parenthesis after the line means the definition of that line.]
Chastened by sudden change in mind - I'm exhausted, so stop treading my trail of thought if you can be so kind
Untamed soul has come to bed with me, but I don't mind as long as bad times...

Hectic Than Lethargic
Hectic Than Lethargic
Hillary said that writing her
new book was cathartic like
me writing my poems.
After things had really become hectic,
Learned I looked like I was lethargic;
Been inevitable;
Forgot vegetable;
Writing my poems can be cathartic.

Lethargic Gallery
"Lethargic Gallery"
by David Lustrup 2017
Amid this desolation
My blood has stopped, there is no pressure
The last sweet drop of light, is gone with you
Extinguished angels look at me, telling me goodbye
I fall from heaven’s grace
Into an endless night
Fantastic threads of light and shade
From stars that kiss the nights embrace
A thousand tears fall on the seas
In this...

Love Hate Relationship
Trash talk myself in the mirror,
My fat roll is getting bigger.
Quick to judge others,
For my own druthers.
Can’t stand to see,
What is reflected back at me.
I see my double chin,
And wonder when did it begin?
It didn’t happen overnight,
This frightening sight.
My stomach grumbles,
I begin my struggles.
It calls to me, you know you want to eat,
Come get your...

An Emotionally Lethargic Seeker of Sorts
i am listening to this song
there will never be another you
tears roll down my face slowly
i remember the look on her face
i recall the eerie quiet
i will never forget wishing that she could have died peacefully and painlessly
i am listening to to this song
there will never be another you
the rain begins to fall
the wind begins...

Lethargic Pages
Lethargic pages
Waiting a long time to move
If they move at all
How frustrating it can be!
When I want to see
Another page on this site
And it does not move
See “Gateway timeout error”
After waiting long.
Some material is lost
Irretrievable
When the pages do not move
Annoying this is!
What is being done for this?
Please let us all know.
Can’t do any reviewing
Whenever this...

Lethargic
Lethargic
No memory
One of those days
No motivation
Just laziness
Slumber in the day
Pull down the shade
Descend beneath
Into a deep sleep
Have you ever been Lethargic?
Submerged in silence
Falling away
Into the void
Turn off the noise
Darkness covers the light
Going under for hours
Block out the sun
Cease...
