Unconsciously Conscious Thoughts

Up to my neck in forty winks,
Yet not enough sleep

Heavy blinks appear to weep
With blood-red tears,
As the solace of years

That pass against
One who is rather crass

No longer upper, middle, or lower classes,
Just the chosen few, & then the masses

Sewage trickles down,
Surrounds us & soaks the ground

Those simple thoughts,
Can make my head pound

Until i have found the inner peace
Within,
Relaxing in the mood to lounge
Verb-ally Intransitive

The last part of the stanza
Felt off, yet, felt right
To type, but, literature is a bonanza

Rich with words & letters
Don't be afraid to sound absurd,
Practice makes better
Never at the end of my tether
