Sloth of the present

The bone of laziness has grown and even it is arthritic

Exuberance flown, energy turned stone, breath paralytic 

Feet to floor sewn eyelids under weight groan vision granitic

In a bed outgrown all work postpone deaf to any critic

Reviews

[Fabian G. Franklin]

I'm more the type to overdo and then suffer being stove up a few days after. My mind thinks I'm thirty-five but my body protests I'm at least twice that. But rest is good in its place and we all deserve a little down time when the world gets too demanding. An interesting and descriptive evocation.

Thanks so much Fabian for the review this one came up as I realized that I have been a most active person all my life but of late have become less so and miss the energy that gos with activity.

[Chris Shaw]

Sounds like being rooted to the ground, unable to find the enthusiasm or energy to move forward. Nothing will shift someone in this mood, maybe a stick of dynamite. Once or twice I have been there but I always got myself to work. Plenty don’t.

[John the Baptist]

Sounds like me just after waking up.

Thanks John yes it well could be it came to mind after seeing people that won't take a job for any amount of money preferring to stay home (their parents home) and be parasitic.
