Marty Owens Poet Narrative

Sleep Wonderful Sleep

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
ZZ-Sleep is so wonderful. Mostly in the morning when you don't want to get up.ZZ
You lay there hoping for just 5 minutes more.  And you say, "I'm going to bed earlier tonight"
Well you work all day and then you go home and get on PS on the PC and you read poems.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ 
comments, make new comments to different ones, read soupmail, check for new contests, 
check contests winners, read new blogs. You eat your dinner and then go back to the PC and 
more PS.  You keep watching the clock because you say to yourself, "In 15 more minutes, 
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
I'm going to take my shower and go to bed!"  You begin this around 9:30 p.m. or so.  At 
9:45, you say, "I'll wait until 10:00,"  At 10:00 you say, "I'll wait until 10:15."  And so you go 
on until pretty soon the clock strikes 12 midnight. You reluctantly close down your PC and go 
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
take a shower.  You get in the bed around 12:30, sometimes later.  Sometimes things are on 
your mind and you don't go to sleep for awhile.  Sometimes you fall asleep very quickly.  
ZZ-Sleep is so wonderful. Mostly in the morning when you don't want to get up!!!!!!!!!!=ZZ
