AWAKE
in darkness like I shouldn't be.
AWAKE
with night blossoms
Leaky faucets
and rodents who won't lie still
AWAKE
because I like to
and I want to
and nobody makes me
~~~but secretly~~~
I aim to be reprimanded
by the prince of deepened nights
who might catch me snoozing blatantly
and write me up for
FAILURE TO BE AWAKE
"be AWAKE"
says the Prince of Deepened Knights
"I AM AWAKE, silly"
says I.
"I was only pretending ... in hopes you might stop by."

ReplyDeletethat I just might stop by...
but wait!
you're snoozing
and it's only 4:00am....hmn...;)
Wrong. I'm awake.
ReplyDeleteI wonder who that Prince of Deepend Knights is? Do tell us please ;-)
ReplyDeleteNice try Mrs. Heaven,
ReplyDeleteI hold my unknowns close...sometimes so close, even I don't know what (or who) they are. But I do know they ARE here, and that's about all I can say about that.
;-)
