the ball jingles
the cat runs
she plays
then she stops

glares up at me with that look
that says

you expect me to
RUN
all the way over there?!
just to get that stupid jingling ball?!

you humans are dumb

i'm gonna go lick myself
and take a nap

...idiot humans...

"One, two, three..."
White circles hit his hands
"Four five six... seven"
"Seven is 21 milligrams"

More than enough you see,
More than enough for deep sleep

Doesn't he want more though?
More than 4am alarms
More than mid afternoon naps
More than hugging pillows

I know he craves something deeper
Oh sleep, oh sleep!
How I miss thee!
If only I had not taken you for granted.
I never feel as awake as when you are by my side, but when you're not close I fear I can't survive.
When we reunite, you take away all my blues, especially in that deep sleep filled with dreamy hues.
When will we meet again?
I surely look forward to it!
It's sleep deprivation season!

Dreaming can improve the imagination so the reality of it all doesn't seem so raw and cold to the touch. Feeling yourself completely drift off, so peacefully. It's a suicide mission everyone survives. But having your eyes half closed nothing can be accomplished. Dreams seem real, life like, as if someone was chasing you. As if someone was hurting you. As if someone had you under all their control. As if someone wanted your dreams and you, dead.
