Sleep Calls
Sleep calls like a pillow adored
Sleep you seek
Not only for the meek
It is sleep you seek to retreat from life
To leave the strife
Only for a while
You recline in style
Slumber you must!
To forget
We are on a cusp.
Going down in town
Leaders retreat
Rioters in the streets
Sleep sleep sleep in...
Your soul must rest
You must win.
Evening in slumbering dreams
There are sins.
