Come to rake books,
if you do get two nights
or two days worth of sleep
each week
you are
golden.
However the statistics are compiled.
Fear not. Fatigue is a
t-shirt and a slogan.
A lost chorus line of teeth
is progress.
Could be a t-shirt too.
No matter how the hours
are stolen away from the ember licked door,
they are currency and with them
on our eyelids
walk & growl,
motor shakes
to keep time.
