meditate
floors creak
mistakes to
ponder
from last week
making plans
ruminate
could go to sleep
it's not too late
oh, good lord
I have to pee!
did I smell
smoke?
anxiety
I can't placate it
dull its claws
or dominate it
even pause
the popcorn thoughts
that pop all night
alarm goes
off
alright! alright!
from time to time
its just this way
and though it bites
Ill be okay
