"Later"
     can be later

-Pastorlee
Can just be too late
Stop saying
     "Tomorrow"

No one knows
the last tomorrow,

Just do it!

What is procrastinated is never done until procrastination  is overcome.
Yasmine Jun 2020
The art of procrastination, is to not care at all.
What a fool I am?
To assume I could do nothing at all,

other than worry.

I lay here alone
as my work stockpiles up-
imagine it done
Yes, another Haiku. sorry? no.
This was just a quick one I wanted to write about my friend, but it's too true.

Tomorrow will never be today, but we learned that yesterday.
Dave Robertson Mar 2020
I began a thought
followed it really closely
until dazzled by a mote of dust
that drifted by me

momentarily dumbfounded
I grasped to catch
where I had been heading
when a cat crossed the garden
and intent on its actions
I stalled once more

I shook my head
and pinned my fingers
to the keyboard
to rattle out important words
but then I wondered
how the Easter Islanders
celebrated Easter
and went down that rabbit hole
for an hour

Resurfacing I finally began
and sentences flowed
for a good five minutes

until I saw
that it was time
for dinner
Shadow Mar 2020
stuck on a fence
decisions unmade
I wish the whole thing
from my mind would fade

I try to forget
it's what I do best
can't make it work
I think I'm depressed

can't seem to pick up
the phone like I should
not getting things done
truly wishing I would

what's the matter with me
why am I like this
could be low feelings
yes, something's amiss

evidence mounting
for me it's come clear
my mood is killing
much I hold dear

I'll give it some time
but not a whole lot
if this continues
I must see the doc
Ellen Derbyshire Mar 2020
I think I am in love with apathy and sighs.
I don't feel well when I look into
my own eyes.

What comes next?
After all this scripted non-sense.
The art is gone...

I'll sit on the ******* fence.

And when they come for me,
demanding things I cannot see.
I'll feel the shame I lack,
and keep looking

for the track

  that I can't
                stay
                   on.
