Wednesday

Too too too tired

Chemicals kick me to no effect
Dew douses me but I’m not wet
Fading fast, fading slow
I have nowhere else to go
Sleep forbidden
Trying tiredness hidden
But inevitable escape
Naps inconvenient I make
Dipping in and out of sleep
Try to swim but going under deep
Falling jerk again I wake
Unaware of seconds slaked
Uncounted time lost again
Lord, strength to me lend
Then the darlings start to stir
Idiotic questions and queries heard
Stories told and discussions snug
People wake me like no drug
I think I hate them until the sun
Rises and out they come
