Mind Blown

So, I ran out of sleep medication
a few weeks ago
 and it feels as if 
I have my creativity back. 
Team no sleep. 

My pen is about to 
caress some paper
 and make foreplay 
with her mind. 
Have her reading my poetry
 saying, " Damn, I wish he was mine." 
Then when that fog clears, 
she'll say,  "Wait, he already is,"
 then beg for me to perform
a third stanza 
when a third 
wasn't even written! 
Damn it man, 
my pen just 
erupted in my hand
This writing
I missed it
Now she's all up on my verses
trying to devour every word
when suddenly the title
is all the more clear
and VA taking care of my needs
ain't something
that interests me

VA, you can keep your pills.
 I was dope on my own
