I WANT TO SLEEP

Postby rksingh » Thu Jun 19, 2008 10:58 am

Living among the sick
and the sickening what else
shall I carry except
germs and allergens that keep
me tossing and turning
from 10 p.m. to 4 a.m.

perhaps from the day one
I've never slept well and now
I want to sleep without pills
drinks, 'zines or sex
thoughtless, prayerless, in peace
