A rhapsody of sleep
My pillows, those sluts, welcoming me
Opening their plump selves to whomever wishes to lie with them
Sink into them
Meld with them
Just thinking about it gets my serotonin running
Head aches with the taunt of peace
Wrap myself in soft yawns of flannel love
The warmth along my back of purring
Hours dwindle into a savings of sleep
Sleep, that ever teasing bitch
Who never gives me enough of her sweet love
It doesn’t matter
I am a slave to her embrace nonetheless
And damn if I don’t enjoy it
Ah, sleep
