Don't know what it's doing.
GROUNDHOG
I have nothing to say
and that's not so okay
because the mornings are really not fresh except for the ever-needy cat
kneading and needing nothing like renewal happens here like him I scratch
around furniture try to figure out what I'll do today will money hold up
probably the same as yesterday nothing--my life is a Seinfeld Experience and
my broken mainspring feels so self-renewing that I must study the calendar
on my computer to figure out what day it is or put on TV news and know that
if it's shown this is still a weekday so do I need to go to the market do I
need to go anywhere does another day of ageing make it get any easier or is
boredom simply inert a substanceless gas no easier no harder just is?
