By Michael W. Raley
Another restless night of sleep
Brought to you by fatigue.
Too tired to make it to bed,
So it’s another night on the couch.
I wake up in a daze
And a slight panic
When I look at the time.
I’m awake and up early,
Might as well stay up and
Get a start on the day.
I will pay a heavy toll for this
When this afternoon comes around,
But I am ready for it.
