Wide awake at 3am
Tired-less
Defenseless against the clock
Powerless over time

Closed eyes denied
Restless
Ruthless
Darkness defied
In the back of my mind

Sheep are on strike
With no end in sight
Time to fight or take flight
In the heat of the night

Predictably unbearable
What are my rights?
Can anyone relate
To my unjustified plight?
