Idle

I am idle,
Seeing the others,
they are confident and persistent.
I watch myself,
I am a participant to them
insignificant-
in a mind that is vacant.
I am idle,
while they are useful.
without purpose,
they assume I am harmless.
But to me,
I am dangerous.
I hear myself tell me I am tragic.
I am idle,
lathargic-
I feel myself tremble.
It's easy to run on automatic,
when you can't find your way
out of the static.
