I just want to let her sleep. Let her rest         so she can reemerge a warrior against         the gilded masochism         and misogyny                 of the office.         so her perfect vessel combats the encroaching infection         and she can breathe deep and strong         and snort in the lifeblood of the dawn.         so she can see despite our return to dust         there is yet so much         and she must live in ecstasy of the moment.         so she can reap the reward of a long deserved slumber         and lose the swollen circles and pains of defeat         and shake the anxieties of her heart. Let her rest         so she can come alive. Let her rest         so she can come back. Just,         let her sleep.
