Today 4:57am
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.

One Dream With A Friend In It
Michael opened
his eyes and
saw himself to
be naked until a
door opened and allowed
a nude Chloe to move
closer before the alarm clock rang.

A Result Of The Night Before
Friday, Loretta
woke up and found herself in
some guy's bed and so naked.
That was before she
remembered meeting him at
a local bar Thursday night.

battery
tired... so tired... i'm tired
the circles grow darker each day
it hurts to smile so i don't bother
please leave me alone
the circles grow darker each day
it hurts to smile so i don't bother
please leave me alone

Insomnia Keep
Insomnia, sleep
Oh how my mind loves to weep
Sleep, mine does not keep
Oh how my mind loves to weep
Sleep, mine does not keep

to sleep
Finally
Sleepy drooping eyes
Overtake my mind’s wanderings
To guide a return to that nest of calm
Cradled by thoughts
Of your love
Sleepy drooping eyes
Overtake my mind’s wanderings
To guide a return to that nest of calm
Cradled by thoughts
Of your love

Midnight Daydream
Once again
it's late at night
and I'm wide awake
Maybe I should have a daydream
that I'm sleeping.

What Went On Before The Kid Woke Up
Kevin saw Angie
laying naked on
the bed before she
looked at her stepson
and gave a big smile.

The unseen tiger.
He says
Ato din student ke poriye dilam
Mithai khane niye Aya.
