Sleepless
If you go to sleep
Everything will make sense again
In the morning.
A brief absence, a wipe
A rest that thieves your life and time but
Relieves your woes
Reorganizes things to fit proper and good,
High functionality and minimal waste and all that shit.
How does a brain think
If it’s barely awake, dude?
Thoughts are based on something based in reality like an emotion or a weird looking cactus or freckle on your left forearm that
Was not here with us a few days previous, absent of conglomerated epithelial tissue,
Squashing and prodding each other with an intent to only grow further to grasp the air filtered through our leaves.
