- Set the Clock -

Vicious sleep ignores the rest
Tossing body fumbles its nest
Dashing eyes sheltered by black
Convict the mind to get on track
Awakened creeper swallows a pill
A dream is born and the body is still
Slumber returns with forty winks
Sounds remain but nerves unlink
Trip is depleted by timely sleeping
For fantasy dies in alarm's weeping

I smiled reading this. It was a great testimony of a crappy night's sleep, then finally getting to sleep to have the alarm go off. Expecially brutal when it's a weekend morning and you realize you accidentally turned in on out of habit the night before. Now, when you don't have to get up, you can't go back to sleep! Ouch. This one leaves a mark on me...and a laugh. Thanks for the wake-up. I work nights and basically just woke up to this. Funny, huh?

Hey Hey
Kevin's has been reading my mind! Thought the same things, but in reverse(!) Well thought out and pertinent lines.

Ugh...I hate it when the alarm goes off! I've pitched it across the room a couple of times! Very nice word choice, here.

~Much Love~
