Finals Anxiety

simply awake No music lulls No quiet snoozes No counting naps No stretching tires My clock taunts me No comfort lullabies No breathing relaxes Pajamas strangle me No coolness soothes No meditation stupors No visualization sleeps No position tranquilizes No supplements sedate No aromatherapy calms or finger painting slumbers I am insomnia’s vigilant sentry. Where, oh where's the sandman?

Anais, Pay the dues now, if you must. But own time for everyday after, lest it own you. -Richard
