I'm So Tired
Oh baby well I want your love
yeah baby your the one I love
after work it's such a hard hard day,
I come home and I hear you say
Oh baby (3x)
Oh baby I want you to love me
When I had such a heartache today
and everyday well it's just the same
work and slave just to earn my keep,
make a man want to starve and weep
yeah girl when I work so hard
oh baby I'm so tired
yeah baby not right now
oh baby I'm so tired
Oh baby well I want your love
yeah baby your the one I love
after work it's such a...

be fell
a dozen grappling insects
work on small kingdoms
around their earth, arranging
her morning skirts into lichens—
breathing least with darkness
as she-moths among stars;
white seeds vanished in fire-light
I tenderly slept, heard nothing
but water; remembered thoughts—
the trees, perfect branches
birds by my bed; night pockets
took me – before something dark
floated between luminous
rose and river stone—
at times, they
— all so full of doom— ...

Women Ask Men to Scoot Over
Usually it's in bed
Reluctantly of course we move
Often we'd like to stay where we are
Men never use the word SCOOT
That's a female word all the way
I read this to her
She asks me what I'm trying to prove
I tell her I don't like the SCOOT word
How come she asks
I tell her that she's more fun close by
She's quiet for a moment
Then tells me to SCOOT
Reluctantly of course we move
Often we'd like to stay where we are
Men never use the word SCOOT
That's a female word all the way
I read this to her
She asks me what I'm trying to prove
I tell her I don't like the SCOOT word
How come she asks
I tell her that she's more fun close by
She's quiet for a moment
Then tells me to SCOOT

I SLEEP SO WELL
I sleep so well
au naturel.
If you're no prude,
it means in nude -
no negligees
nor mere PJs.
Feeling so free
in nudity,
sleeping as God
made this fair bod,
skin next to silk
warm like mum's milk,
so assuring
of deep resting.

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?

Sleep
Dream easy.
Sleep for rest.
Dont let thoughts deprive your zest.
Be sleepy.
Redeem your best.
Dont let memories cease your quest.
Seek darkness.
May light be the test.
Dont let the world be an unwanted guest.
Forget sorrows.
They sink the chest.
Dont let worries invite stress.
Drift swiftly.
Your mind is suppressed.
Dont deny so much emptiness.
Sleep for rest.
Dont let thoughts deprive your zest.
Be sleepy.
Redeem your best.
Dont let memories cease your quest.
Seek darkness.
May light be the test.
Dont let the world be an unwanted guest.
Forget sorrows.
They sink the chest.
Dont let worries invite stress.
Drift swiftly.
Your mind is suppressed.
Dont deny so much emptiness.

empty night
That's how I did it to you
very slowly
without rambling
That's how I did it
calmly
with an open hand for you
That everything, like this, without end
no return
no sleep, no sleep, no sleep
all night without sleep
without the blessing of silence
in the palms of my hands
What everything, like this, like this, like this
like the spinning of a top
that comes to an end
sleepless, like this, sleepless, like this
without rambling
very slowly
That's always how I did it
without knowing what I was doing ...

The Frustration of Insomnia
It’s late at night and sleep alludes me
Synapses are firing at high speeds
Thousands of thudding thoughts thump through and through
Denying my brain of the rest it needs
The fidgety minutes turn into restless hours
New beliefs and viewpoints begin to take form
Even as the frustration of insomnia clouds all reason and logic
It’s a kind of magic amidst a quiet storm
And then everything seems to disappear by morning light
All the ideas and philosophies grew wings and took flight
Synapses are firing at high speeds
Thousands of thudding thoughts thump through and through
Denying my brain of the rest it needs
The fidgety minutes turn into restless hours
New beliefs and viewpoints begin to take form
Even as the frustration of insomnia clouds all reason and logic
It’s a kind of magic amidst a quiet storm
And then everything seems to disappear by morning light
All the ideas and philosophies grew wings and took flight

That Loud Trumpet Sound (Snoring)
I will briefly elaborate on this medical related issue in detail, with much regard for a conversation on my Blog Live comments, which lead to a heated discussion about the throes of snoring, and is it unfair for the person who snores, significant other must adjust their lifestyle to adapt on behalf of love, a sense of commitment, or the two of you are not sure which direction to progress forward.
My blog addressed the seriousness of snoring, and if there is any help to the person who must endure that hollowed bedroom saluting throughout the night.
