BOREDOM-Againl!

A POEM
BOREDOM - Against!!

.

''Let's hear it for our boredom expert, Dr. Killer. With a name like Killer, you would think that boredom would NOT enter the picture. You must ''inspire'' a lot of confidence. You are, actually, a Rhodes Scholar and wrote your doctoral thesis on boredom. So, if you don't have the credentials to bore us, I don't know who does. Maybe I should just read your thesis out loud. That should do it.'So,

Dr. Killer, [Dr. Killer -Out Loud To Herself] Go ahead, Bore us.''

You are making fun of me, aren't you?

''No,No Dr. Killer. Certainly not. [Dr. Killer. Out Loud To Herself]

I've Been Against Boredom,
For A Long Time.

''This is rivetting. In fact, I WISH i HAD SOME RIVETS, RIGHT NOW.''

You are making fun of me. THIS IS NOT FUN -
IT's SERIOUS .

''You are CORRECT, sir. This is NOT FUN. Which one is most serious?''

BOREDOM! We Need A Recipe,
or Something,
To Prevent BOREDOM!

''So You're NOT Serious?'

Chloe Gives the audience one of her patented, mischievious smiles, Holds it for just the correct amount of time. [The audience roars with laughter]'

''Okay. Dr. Seriously, then. What kind of things prevent BOREDOM?''

How About Doing Things
We Don't LIKE?
Chloe and audience [NO!!]

How About ''WATCHING,'' a Pot-Boil'' Situation
With People and Places,
THAT FEEL AWKWARD?

[NO!!]

How About HELLISHness Where
Time CREEPS ALONG?
[NO!!]That's Creepy!!

How About Nothing Creative?
[NO!!]

[That's ALL Well and Good,
But, You're NOT Trying.
YOU'RE LIVING IN THE SUPPOSED TO'S]

How About Something You - ENJOY?!?!
Something That Makes
TIME FLY?

[YES!!]

FIND WHAT YOU LIKE TO DO and
DO IT!!
''NOW, THAT'S CREATIVE?''
[Just Don't Hurt Anyone]

''Ladies and gentlemen and neighbors. The Doctor, himself. Dr. Killer. A rose by any other name. We had some fun with Dr. Killer, tonight. We are glad he was such a good sport. Let's hear it, again for Dr. Killer. That's Dr. Killer. K-I-L''
