The answer it appears,
Not.
For this exercise,
Of filtering life thru eyes poetic,
24/7, is an equation, with a single constant,
Eyes wide shut.
They would sleep,
If they but, could record their dreams,
Precisely, securely.
Absent that assurety,
Without that guarantee,
Sleep verboten, lest a single poem
Escape unrecorded.
