333 Entries for “idle”

  1. the phase in any life where nothing becomes accomplished. These are phases that we try to become as distant from as possible, but it is never perfectly at bay. Even when the most well thought out anti-idle plan is made and executed, there are always chances of failure which will, ultimately, lead to idleness.

  2. i am iscolated on this island, it isnt moving. its stuck in same place, like a car with a dead battery. staring out over that waters, i pull the land to me with my eyes.

  3. I’m just sitting, watching the world goby. I don’t move; why would I? I have nothing to tell those people walking by the windo, nothing of importance to say. So why would they care, anyways? Why would it even matter to them if I existed? They’re busy people, living their busy lives, doing their busy paper work. Me, I’m just an idle person.

  8. He sat there in the chair, gazing meaninglessly out of the window. If it wasnt raining so bloody much he might..just might mind you, get up and go out… But then that would mean he would have to do something, have adrink, brush his hair, something.. and he just didnt want to. Why should he?
    He had everything here in his little world, it was dry, relatively warm the tv was on, he wouldnt have to speak to anyone, didnt want to have to bother about what he looked like, whether or not he had shaved or brushed his hair.
    Idle his Mother used to say… Bone Idle

  9. her time goes tick tick tick tick tick
    like the idling engine of a car
    waiting for something to do.

    she pretends that boredom is poetic
    trying to ignore her lack of her inspiration
    as the sleeping of a volcano
    waiting for its muse to explode.

  12. I saw that my friends screen name was idle and I wouldn’t be able to IM him. It wasn’t that important I suppose. I really just needed to fax him something for him to sign. Hopefully he gets the message I left him on his cell phone. Having a friend that is a doctor really comes in handy.

  13. This is what I’ve become, a dull match, a dead swan, I just stare and stare at the screen in hopes that one day my mind will figure out the complex puzzle it has encountered. My fingers won’t move, neither will my lips, but on the rare occasion my eye will blink and I will give everyone who is waiting so impatiently a glimmer of hope.

  14. being idle is the science of wasting away. even when in a state of meditation, one is hardly in a state which one could effectively call idle. Waiting is one of the only acceptable reasons for standing idle that immediately comes to mind, and one actually has difficulty remaining idle often.

  15. pretty kmuch descrivbes my entire state of being right now eating popsicles I spend great amounts of time sitting very still in the sun and focusing on how it feels against my face, taking it all in which feels good but isn’t very useful sweet popsicles on the tongue it isn’t warm enough here this is too hard and outside it is sunny and in here it is not.

  16. An idle mind may be the devil’s workshop, but an unstable one in creativity’s birthplace. Depression allows for an alternative path of thought, one past the rainbows and unicorns and into the unexplored depths of human existence.

    Chimmie
  17. Is this.

  18. His chat reads idle
    My thumbs twitch
    I want to talk to him
    I want to tell him things
    That I can never tell him
    For if I did, he would freak
    Oh, the pains of being a teenager
    Crying yourself to sleep over a silly boy

    Lizzie Bellows
  19. I spend most of my time idle
    or maybe i don’t
    maybe i’m afraid of being idle
    so i spend all my time on the internet
    or playing games on the computer
    or talking to my pets
    so i dont have to think
    or do
    or be
    i dont know
    it’s hard to live actively
    but it’s easy to be passive

  20. she said her mood was on ‘idle’. she was looking out the window and her hands were folded neatly over her stomach as i breathed down hard on her. she didnt return my feelings of heat and love. she just stared out at the night, without me in her sights.

  21. I hate being idle. I don’t move. I don’t like not to move. I may be a bit ADD, but still, life is not meant to be idle.

  22. being in a state of mind where you cannot focus.
    Or being something that is not concious.
    I am idle.
    Like standby on the TV.
    The TV is idle.
    Almost like you’re waiting for something to happen.

  25. She stopped on the street corner, looking around her as she did so. The man at the other end of the road is the one that she wanted. The man who was looking around as she was looking around. One in the same. The snow fell from the sky and the only thing she could think was one thing, “Do it. Don’t be idle.”

    Alyssa Diaz
  26. Sometimes I like to idle around. Sometimes I’m just idling and doing shit. I don’t really like to be idle because I’m not really an idle person, but I do tend to idle when I’ve got nothing better to do, or if I’m just thinking about something. I like to idle in deep thought but I dislike the fact that it makes me feel lonely. Loneliness is something that will cause idling, and idling will cause loneliness, it’s a vicious cycle. Sometimes I idle in computer games, and I get screamed at, but I don’t mind, I just tell them to fuck off.

  27. And the car shuttered to a stop on the side of the road. The look of rage was plastered across his face. It was clear as day. But unlike other times when she’d hitch-hiked, their was something different in his angry eyes. Something more sinister. She felt afraid for the fist time that she’d ever spent time on the road.

    John Cuthbert
  28. I’m feeling quite idle at this moment. I had just been thinking to myself, “Shall I or shan’t I?” in reference to inspiring myself in a condensed thirty second period, and indeed, I conceded, and arose to the challenge. And now once again, I slip quietly back into an evening idleness.

  29. he sat idle beneath the tree waiting for her to arrive. he saw her coming over the hill, a vision of beauty in a long white dress. He stood up and hurried over to her. but alas she wasn’t really there.

  30. sitting still. quiet. nothingness. a car sitting at a red light or in the drive-thru. peace. solace. a small girl waiting for the bus. a grandmother sitting on a park bench doing nothing, just sitting.

    Shakespeare
  31. без дела, безделье, просто ничего не делать, ни о чём не думать, просто быть, наслаждаясь моментом, мнгновением

  32. idle, someone you look up to.
    idle, someone you praise.
    idle, someone who never disappoints.
    my idle was my best friend.
    my idle was my love, my passion, my honor.
    my idle was everything.

  33. I was sitting in the idle car when i realized the sound outside stopped being rain drops hitting the windshield, but the smack of something thicker than water.

  34. idleness tends to define the priorities a person has in their standard life. Idleness can define more specifically the ultimate process by which an individual can part take in goal achievement activities or simple recreation.

  39. I am standing here doing nothing… contributing nothing. A waste to humane society. I sit here at this desk waiting. Waiting for a job to do. They pay me to sit and stare into the ceiling, pretending that I have a job to do. I wish I that I was outside playing in the green grass. I wish I was more productive. Why am I not in landscaping??? I wish.
