Sleep Takes Center Stage
When sleepiness takes center stage
the writing starts to slow.
I have more words, another page.
Have wakefulness? Uh, no.

When sleepiness is in my face,
I can't think of words to write.
So, slower, slower goes the pace
with closing eyes, not bright.

When sleepiness attends my brain,
I stare out into space.
I have some ground I'd like to gain,
but thoughts have no more place.

When sleepiness evicts my rhyme,
I dream of napping soon.
Must be, that this is harvest time.
Here comes the Harvest Moon.
