Two in the morning

Papers strewn around

A well of information,

Incomprehensible and scribbled,

Foreign and muddled,

Swallowing me whole

An early morning coffee

Late night cigarette

To keep my bleary eyes

Open

Eyelids parted with

Nicotine

Caffeine

Begging the question “why?”

And gravity pulling

Ever

Closer to sleep.

I like this. The vision created hit a note with me. I don't study or work nights, but I don't sleep either. I write. It gave me a smile because it the truth of home. Very nice write. Like the flow and imagery. Thank you for sharing, P

'And gravity pulling me ever closer to sleep"
made me think of just before succumbing to anesthesia…feeling like someone was pushing me down through the table…
That something so invisible could be so heavy!

Thank you for the visual imagery of your work!
I could read this a hundred times and it would always have something to say to me!
