A Series of Three

#1:   

             synapses firing
      my closed eyes see July 4th
         please just let me sleep

#2:

          my mind's still working
  stop thought but think only of sleep
                 find Colombia

#3:

            my wife hid the gun
        not mine but the other one
             i don't have bullets

Razor's edge. Thick ku. I'd label them Senryu xomo!
