Electricity
Rushes through her bones as she
Lays her head to sleep.
Energy flowing,
Like straight whiskey down her throat,
Keeps her up at night.
Her pillow is soft
Soft like a summer sky’s clouds
Still, no comfort comes.
She plugs in her phone.
The light still shines in the dark.
She can’t block it out.
No energy flows
As she wakes up the next day
She is still unplugged.
