Sleepless

damn it

it’s 4:18 am
can’t sleep
wishing for something
or someone to put me out
insomnia
read half a book
drank a down a cup of tea
flipping through the TV

easy
payments

you won’t leap to the pavement

just checked out the sex chats
how boring
what size are your tits
who has the biggest dick
sure buddy
this is it

my mind is spinning
can’t shut the bugger off
wish I was a car
then I’d just get driven
a little go juice
a little wax
shiny hub
caps
nice round rubber
wheels
smooth
easy
gears

shifting
in and out
parking
lights out

wouldn’t that be divine
needing something
wish for a switch
on off
off on
off off off

nights like these
they come around too often
think I’m going to go
insane
painting
some sad attempt at art
some crazy blobby thing
no one ever understands
help wanted
needed
unanswered ad

in commercials
buy this wonder product
for
easy
statements

you won’t leap to the pavement
