My Nothing Box

The nothing box is my retreat
The buzzing drones
Despite my groans
The nothing box is my retreat

I woke this morning full of life
Sat at breakfast with my wife
But the buzzing droned
Despite my groans
The nothing box is my retreat

I settled down in my armchair
But her hot breath whistled thru my hair
And the buzzing droned
Despite my groans
The nothing box is my retreat

I got the shotgun off the wall
She kept talking but I stood tall
Now no buzzing drones
I no longer groan
I’m in my nothing box so sweet

 

 

 

 

Inspired by the notion that men have a place in their minds where they retreat and think about nothing – unlike women.
