A Calm Day

The day has no agenda.
An inert mood steals the day.
There's nothing to bother me.
Nothing seems interesting.

Out, out of the whirlpool of doldrums you must.
Where is that drive that has driven you to the dawn of writing?

Though the sun is tilting towards West,
it is not lacking in splendour.
Likewise my life shall be.
