Heavy sticky eyelids drooping, mascara heavy lashes flicking out in curls one by one, fighting sleep, fought it last night until I could take no more. Made it to 4am by white powder and woke to a thin roll of red stringy Thai smoke that stank up the house and helped me forget for a little while. What am I doing waiting for your call so late because I need to be held and can't sleep alone.
