Thoughts struggle
To be realized
As brain is blank –
empty mentally
I could say,
“I am feeling off”
Or that something
doesn’t quite
Fit

Limbs are wound
up tight and ready
To go, leg bouncing
With excess
Energies leaking
Thoughly and fully
Misplaced

Soft sheets call
a firm pillow
Shouts to me over
10 miles as I futz
here at work waiting
to be released
Unstuck

Though sleep mocks
Defying my tries
If I heeded bed’s
Call and lay down
Forcing eyes closed
That won’t stay
Closed
anyway
