A Sleeping Giant
Eyelids heavy with sleep
I suffer in silence so deep
Mentally ill, be quiet and still
Depressed and anxious at will
The circadian rhythm disrupted
My health surely corrupted
The economy they blame
Illness and politics the same
Take-over bids abound
Power struggles all around
Capturing bodies and souls
The voters barely know their roles
