2AM
Can’t sleep
Can’t catch a wink
Shut-eye is difficult when eyes are open
2AM poetry is the best Idea yet
This isn’t a Haiku is it?
Nope
It went on a bit too long
Plus, I think it has too many, uh…
What are those things called?
Syllables
Right!

Counting Sleep (I mean sheep)
1 sheep, 2 sheep, 3 sheep 🐑
Oh look, one jumped over the moon 🌙

Lullaby
Rock-a-bye baby 🎸
On a tree top
Because this makes so much sense
And of course the bow would break 🙄
Why are lullabies so true to life?
Moms sure prepare you for the real world early. 🌎

Insomnia
I didn’t think insomnia was possible
Until it was my lot
I can’t say I enjoy it much
It’s an aggravating plot
Wide awake at witching hour
My brain has thunk a lot
Some sleep would be a dandy thing
But sleep my body’s forgot.
Insomnia: sleep amnesia
