Out of college

=======================
==== Bored haiku* ====
=======================
this tedious life is
killing my spirit slowly,
not that uncommon


=======================
==== Reply haiku chain ====
=======================
An expert I'm not
I am still young and stupid
Yet things I have seen

For people I know
Disappointed they become
Myself included

Slowly losing hope
you fall into compliance
accepting the rules

Your great potential
will never be fully used
The spark will fade out

I've seen this happen
many a time and once more
you are not alone

Still I do not know
if maturity kicks in
Or you just get numb

But after a while
somehow it barely matters
You're so used to it

I don't give counsel
Only the common pattern
wanted to point out
