408

I'm awake,

but not quite

Bewitching hour again

Crowded at the ends

nothing in between

Void inside

Dark in my eyes

Sweat chills my skin

Still Trembling still

Awake, I began to ponder

seek the witch and her master

Flick the light switch on

Reach for my dog sleeping at my feet

Turn to touch the snoring woman beside me

Look around again

I am the witch and devil's master

I see

I recognize

But never learn

To sleep or to wake

Such is my self ordered fate

Up again at 4:08
