Insomnia

kept awake by noisy snores, mind opens a thousand doors- thinking of tomorrows chores, washing up and sweeping floors, Tasks complete a shopping trip, buying something really hip, at my saving I will chip. hide from snorer or he'll flip. picking up the kids from class. single father makes a pass.make him look a total ass. tell the others as I pass. get them home and cook the tea. Snorers late so just for three. watch the news on the t.v. all bad news it seems to me. homework done and kids in bed. but still more chores for me instead. how i'd love to lay my head. so tired out I feel half dead- a grunt, a groan and snorers stopped.my eyes fall shut no longer propped.into a deep sleep i've dropped. as though a valium's been popped..........zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz BBBBBBBBRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!
