need doing

I've recently decided
I don't like my friends.
They've all become boring.
Doing all the things
that need doing -
* raising children
* making appointments
* cleaning the bathroom
Lots of things need doing
even if they're boring.
But I don't do boring;
I sleep.
Through boring nightmares,
boring murders, boring deaths.
Such are the things
that need doing
in my world.
dying, killing,
crying, hurting.
Were it not for the nightmares,
I might feel like I was being lazy.
