Bloodshot Eyes

Who sleeps anymore, let me know who?
With bloodshot eyes, playing at their 
electronic zoos?
Games to play, and do not
forget Facebook!
Meanwhile, human touch?
Nah! Not in the playbook!

We sleep when we are dead...with the ease of human connection it is easy to forego

So, are you saying I should never sleep when I am alive? Don't try to drive if you don't sleep.)))) From human sleep we can awake. Dead is dead. There's no awakening at all till God returns. Also, I don't think dust can wake up and have breakfast. The body deteriates fast in a coffin. You can soup me..I just am a Densoid about the comment no big deal. Just appreciate your comment....Panagiota

So true for so many these days Panagiota. When we have family dinners, 3 out of 4 people are staring at their iphones! I miss the good old days. Blessings, Susan

Ah, my dear Susan! It's too gross. I know what you mean and avoid family events for that reason. It's so cruel, on outs, manner less and heartless. I won't even go. An iPhone is loved more than a human being. I won't go unless phones are off the table. After dinner, they run to jump back on them? The nuns told us God sees all things. He sees what is going on~ the disrespect for his creations~ each other. Love, Panagiota read I AM GoD.
