Andrea Dietrich Poet Pleiades

Notes About The Poem

Naps

"If I could nap as peacefully as my cat, that would be amazing." From "Love to Know"

Never do I sleep like
Normal folks. Even at 
Night, pills keep me asleep!
Not listless, I still think
Nice it would be to just
Nod off when I wanted,
Navigating day – dreams.
