My ceiling light
Glows dimmer
As I surrender to
The fatal spell of slumber...

The kind
Unfettered by dream
Or weak bladder...

A reasonable facsimile
Of death while breathing...

Senses all heed the call
To rest and recharge...

The world's mysteries
Shall remain unsolved
Until dawn...

If
I awake!
