Sleepless

This week’s poem needs no introduction or explanation. Just too many thoughts.

 

Sleepless

Floating like a bat,
skin between my fingers,
my belly a screeching infant,
demanding comfort and warm milk.

Hanging upside down
thoughts flood in like blood,
I am dizzy,
dizzy.

Falling
….. asleep.
