• Insomnia, sleepless dreaming,
    white water breaks on shores of sand
    Oceans of salt and steel that make the metallic bleeding from my eyes seem small
    A drumline pounds an angry, aching, terrified beat
    A steady waltz to the sensation of pulsing hands
    Where's the aspirin?
    Soft silk laps at burning flesh that shivers while frozen in heat
    Glistening tears of perspiration now flow from pores,
    holes in my flesh
    Unzip it, step out, relive the itch,
    Toss your skin aside and look deep within the treasure of your skeleton to find the barest bone of all
    Your soul
    Its quaking in fear as it watches your inner child drown in your sleepless dream,
    burn in your frozen flesh.
    Where are the sleeping pills?
    Where's the relief?
