Lunesta

Puts to sleep
Deep deep deep
So they say
Therefore may stray

Driving while asleep
Down the center of th street
Oncoming traffic
What could happen

Nothing but a good night's sleep
Refreshed at the alarms beep
Lunesta lunesta 
How you refresh her

(Lunesta a new sleep aide by prescription only can cause to seem awake but are actually 
asleep people drive and do all kinds of activities but are actually asleep.  My daughter's 
father-in-law had six wrecks in six months no one was hurt or killed but could have been
and he also would have amnesia type behavior where he would keep taking pills where he 
was only to take one per night.)
