A Pointless Poem Poem by jan hansen

A Pointless Poem

a pointless poem

he sat in the bathtub
the water was cold
for no reason at all 
except he was bored
and it was raining 
an open umbrella
on the floor
the book he planned
to read
had slipped out of his hands 
unreadable 
shaking hands
but he must be strong
the book
was about bravery 
he thought of death
hastily arose 
not a mercurous
figure of man
dried his hands 
and smoked a cigarette
