go to bed,
you’ve got to be up early
in the morning
I’ll be tired,
whatever
you said

Let them be alien
Mouthfuls of mindfulness
invading my senses
inhaling , patience complacence
what is this foul fragrance
unfamiliar, alien
yet verbatim
a sleepless ultimatum
or let them be alien?

i slept
i slept
more than
slumber
needed
to be,
and in
those
moments
i dreamed
and in
those times
i had
no fears,
i was
relatively
content
with myself,
but what
will i be
tomorrow?

Drowning Out
I fall asleep to the noise of a fan
every night
always
it helps quiet
loud thoughts
I don't want to hear
What I really need
Is a bedroom
with an open window
right next to
Niagara Falls
every night
always
it helps quiet
loud thoughts
I don't want to hear
What I really need
Is a bedroom
with an open window
right next to
Niagara Falls

Judased
It’s 4 am
I’m full awake
my body Judased
into rising
from my bed
un-purposed to my day
prospected with
long dark-edged hours.
Outside, bird song,
cheery and alive
rings noisily
to mock me.

Lying In Bed
Sleep chasing
Mind racing
Thought pacing
Blame placing
Guilt embracing
Hope erasing
Self effacing

Three am heart
What I want
most will never
happen through
this time on earth
but as I close my
eyes drifting away,
it's almost feels
like i'm close
enough.

dream (in color)
i want
to dream
in color
not just
in black
and white
turning
my dreams
dull gray
i want
the colors
of bright
flowers
to invade
my dreams.

like an avalanche
the last
outlines
of the
snow peaks
would soon
have to
wait
while the
lazy dark
hung motionless
in my
dying vision,
the last
breath
near sleep
like an
avalanche
is all
the motion
i remember,
the night
crashing
over me
completely.

bad dreams
stalked,
those tremors
prepared
the nights
through
sleep,
bad dreams
lay thick
bare pinnacle
shallow
breathing,
shaking in
the thin
air.
