And now for something completely different

I was at work, dreadfully bored, and when such things happen i get artsy, and in this instance i wrote a bit of poetry. i started with a lyric in a song by cole porter(it was stuck in my head),the first and last phrase.

"In the Still of the Night"

In the still of the night,
As i gaze from my window,

I study the solemn silence,
And i ponder on problems.
I fret on misfortune,
I investigate insanity

I gander at grief and wonder at woes

Yet gladness glides by them,
Enjoyment exalts!
Joy jolts by the gloom,
Even as dreams distract.

Hope hinders the chaos and calm creates comfort

In the still of the night,
As i gaze from my window

meh. it helped keep my mind occupied.
