To Nap Or Not To Nap
Naps are a curious thing
Sometimes they are very useful
Other times it feels very disorienting
I think this one was a bit of both
I definitely needed more rest
After the long night I had
But I also think I’m getting sick
And my body woke up feeling miserable
It doesn’t help that I fell asleep in the light
And woke up in the dark
That's an easy way to screw up my internal clock

I too don't like going to sleep in daylight to wake in dark and find curtains still open etc. I sometimes nap in a layby during a long drive. A nap is a way of life in Spain and Latino countries under the name of 'siesta'. Winston Churchill took up the habit while a war correspondent during the Spanish-American War in Cuba, he claimed it helped him operate late into the night which was particularly useful to him as a wartime prime minister.
