Spending time looking for something that isn't there.

miniver Seven winters in a sleepy mind;
Twelve great merriments; a laugh,
a lazy stroll under the sea:
This may have been your dream
that seeped in icy oceans
all blue-green and drowningly.
"I was not meant to understand."
From thirteen leagues below,
You saw the snow meet water
and just float around, awhile,
then disappear to dance with you
among so many haunted reefs.
Now, then. Now, all left unremembered.

miniver I wasn't God long enough to legally change my name. Besides which, I don't think I could survive without my mere mortal miniverian nonpopularity goading me on. (So, just don't start flippantly confessing and ye shall be saved from the eternal flames of hell, yada, scepter-wave, etc.)

And, of course, bonus points must be awarded for a most politic acknowledgement of the pretty numbers. Numberlings.

This is a trap, too, though isn't it? Now, I speak -- a tragedy. And blathing much too often to remain pessimistically subpopular...

Risen Stepping over each one carefully, terrified I won't spot the next.

The loneliness and isolation, the boredom, the pain... it gets to you after a while. Makes you spend far longer daydreaming than might be healthy.

They told me that fun gland which likes to break a load of bones and literally drive me mad is playing up again.

When they call ignorance bliss, they fail to mention that intelligence can be hell. Trapped in your own mind, with no way out, nothing to do, and nothing to occupy it.

There was a moment when I thought I'd be a professor, which seems hilarious now that my days are spent festering.

Maybe it's karma. Maybe I deserve it. Maybe it's the new normal.

When do you stop wondering if it's a trap, and start wondering if it's a cage?
