Somnolent

Heavy eyelids
Drooping daze;
Blur fatigue


Hot weather
Sleepy eyes punctuate;
Somnolence


Well-fed bout
Too much food;
Sleepy convulsions


Eyelids heavy
Drowsy excursions;
Dreamy ESP


Chatter in slow motion
Awareness in decline;
Afternoon nap


Rapid express
Snoring sensations;
Roomy context


One by one
Figures tumble;
Sleepy exposure


Painful waiting time
Dental appointment;
Fatal extraction!


So many things
Left unsaid;
Good conversation


Drowsy listening
After lunch break;
Learners half asleep


Crowded space
Edgy moods prowl;
Silent rage sparks


Extra dry drought
Wild fires burn;
Smoke and ashes


Take a walk
Make some small talk;
Stiff indifference


Crowded street
Lonely faces;
Anxiety engineers


Busy footsteps
Crowded mall;
Noise pollution


Brief glance
Beauty meets beast;
Bar stool permutation


By crowded footpath
Old cripple cries:
Help me, buy tissues!


Day time escapades
Sunday morning jog;
People street hog
