squeals
on train tracks
through me tonight
a discordant cacophony
jangles these
jumpy nerves
through cold corners
dread steadily
rises to meet
the digital clock that
flashes
another sleepless hour
on this
high old ceiling
that still needs crown moldings
just want to stay
marooned in bed
trepidation
an arm’s length
away
tucked inside
my fuzzy slippers
