2am frozen

2am is frozen

paralyzed drowsy

thoughts flooding

pensive. fearful.

blanket binds floating soul

horizontal. cemented.

rotating fan monitors

high buzz designed

for optimal annoyance

hushed strains of irritation

ignite something.

too sleepy to whine.

ceiling cratered

wall ironed

bear asleep.

ugh.

sleep, sleep, sleep!

time to sleep!

goodnight germinating plants,

growing in your sleep.

goodnight fortunate bear,

oblivious to stresses of being alive

goodnight carpet,

I will vacuum you one day.

freeze, time

til energy arrives

despite prospects

of tomorrow.
