Climb the highest mountain, punch the face of god
Straight Out Of Bed, In A Tomb That Harbors No Sleep
I get out of bed,
Trudge clumsily down the hallway
And stop at the water cooler.
I down a glass of water
With three Tylenol,
Trying to will away the
Ache around my eyes.
The ache of too much
Rotten sleep.
Filled me to the brim
With an early morning, full
Of tangent dreams, leading me nowhere.
I'm always nowhere,
It's my current residence.
Can't turn right, can't turn left,
It's all dyslexic to me.
I don't want to stumble down
The hill of worry I built up myself.
I don't want it to be that I
Fall mercilessly, down, down,
To break my halo of thought
And lie there, blinking,
Explaining I saw a vision of God
To a mass of imagination.

*The title was going to bed Straight Out Of Bed In A ROOM That Harbors No Sleep, but a misspelling led it to be tomb and I like it better.
Trudge clumsily down the hallway
And stop at the water cooler.
I down a glass of water
With three Tylenol,
Trying to will away the
Ache around my eyes.
The ache of too much
Rotten sleep.
Filled me to the brim
With an early morning, full
Of tangent dreams, leading me nowhere.
I'm always nowhere,
It's my current residence.
Can't turn right, can't turn left,
It's all dyslexic to me.
I don't want to stumble down
The hill of worry I built up myself.
I don't want it to be that I
Fall mercilessly, down, down,
To break my halo of thought
And lie there, blinking,
Explaining I saw a vision of God
To a mass of imagination.
