Sleep Needs To Come

Oh sleep, where are you when I need you
The most?
You're as illusive as Sasquatch...
I try to count those noisy little sheep....
All they do is make me want to scream...
Don't know why I bother? they remind  
Me of the sheeple jumping  into the
brainwashing cesspool of governmental
deceit...
What can I do to make slumber come?
This has become a rather bothersome
Nightly conundrum....
Tossing and turning no paradoxical sleep  
For me...
Mind won't stop turning to much thinking  
Going on for me to catch some Z's...
Three a.m. and all is not well...  
Sleep is needed and I'm writing like hell on my  
Not so smart phone, eyes watering and all Is a blur...
Doing good to make out a single word....
Going to close now, wish me luck, I think I'll try  
Counting alligators or even some ducks....
Closing my eyes, have another date with the back  
Of my eyelids, surely hope this one is better than
All the rest...
