problems of nocturnal primates

Folder: 
failure to cope

there's a moment that comes

just before morning

on the quietest of sleepless nights

when the scales tip

 

and laying awake is an effrontery

against ever growing to-do lists

when sleep turns from the ever elusive goal

to its own form of cruel, exhausting punishment.

 

to lay awake and wait for the beep,

or to seize the day with no sleep

knowing no matter what,

tomorrow will crash and burn around you

 

no matter how important it is.

Author's Notes/Comments:

New Job, No Sleep

That may be a plus. Hope all went well - if you remember any of it, sleep deprevation affects the memory - it is like old age. Just remember the most important thing: The answer is never "I don't remember you telling me that." Congrats on new gig. You will do greatness proud! :D
