    He said rest was for the contented
    if he sat still too long
    he could feel the world
    crawling on his skin
    and he would scratch until
    his pores wept

    He said he could never be
    in a forever place
    the inertia would harden
    his synapses and he would
    lie in the bed for weeks
    sadly derelict

    I asked him if perpetual movement
    caused him to miss the importance
    of small moments

    He never answered, already past
    the mundaneness of small talk
    he skipped through an indigo dream
    conversing with an empty sky

    Very nice, although I can't tell your attitude towards "indigo children"

    Actually he is deceased. He was what some consider an "Indigo Child"...someone with an extremely high IQ but symptoms of autism. He took his own life after years of mental issues and severe depression.
