Insomnia drains
my brain of useful thought as
I begin my day.

Hearing a line thwack
aluminum mast all night —
can you say “no sleep?”

Rain on the tin roof
above my head drip drip drip
led to little sleep.

Found myself watching

Breaking Bad at 4 a.m.

What is wrong with me?

Rain on metal roof
means little sleep — made me sad —
too much time to think.

A lit snowflake on
the telephone pole keeps me
awake most the night.

Star on the light pole
shines in my window. No sleep.
Ho ho ho ho ho.
