Four A. M.

Waking up Couldn't sleep Didn't want To get under the sheet Turned on Soup At three A.M Must be REM Dreaming again Went outside To hear Sounds of The night Wanted my Soul to Just take Flight Night air Moist But not Too cool Crickets Sounding That was Cool Off in a distance The roar Of a truck Of course This is Just my Luck No quiet Interlude With nature To soothe My soul So off To bed I guess I'll just Go Go Go
