The Night Crew

The Night Crew waited for Signs of imminent sleep The breathing was steady And regular, not deep No alpha wave rhythms No more need to wait For the host body was In Total Resting state Then they started On their daily chore Tuning up the organs And so much more Checking all the vessels For signs of impending leak Tuning the body up to It’s maximum possible peak With the first signs of The body coming awake The Night Crew stood down For their well earned break Repair Control relaxed Until the next night when It would call them back On duty once again. The Day Crew took over Their period of control Ready to take over The functioning whole And the body could awake Felling relaxed and stronger And thanks to the Night Crew Maybe last a little longer
