what good is the night
when sleep is not part
but tossing and turning
wakefulness rules
morning arrives too soon
the day dragging feet
dozing off is the pastime
not a very happy day
brain function is reduced
subsistance levels only
rational thought is lost
little hope of logic
body cries out for sleep
mind echoes the plea
duty stands tall in the way
time for revolution
Revolution complete
the rebel forces win
triumph for the masses!
I take a nap.
I made a pledge to myself to write a poem a day for the entire year. Now to follow through. I preface this with a reminder; most of the poems written for this year long project will be done so spontaneously and therefore will not be edited. Bear with me on this. The project goal is to get them written over getting them perfect. Several times there will simply be the poem with no title. When that happens suggestions for a title will be welcomed in the comments.
