Sleepiness
August 9, 2010
Falling asleep.
My head nodding
as if in response
to the people talking.
My eyelids droop,
shutting out all light.
My arms are numb,
but they can move
to form a buttress
for my throbbing skull.
I can hear the noise,
but it's in the back of my mind.
In my head,
I can see the animals,
like fluffy white clouds.
Flying over the walls
one by one.
Finally
the darkness overtakes me
and I fall into the depths
of lethargy and dreams.
