my head
feels heavier
than most days
lifting off the pillow
a strain
sending an uncomfortable feeling
down the spine
rolling over
no relief
falling back to
a dream-state
the answer
limbs won’t move
eyes won’t focus
head is leaning
into an ache
supposed to feel rested
after 10 hours of sleep
one would think
all those zzzzzzz
in a rem
yet no remembrance
was it deep and or dream-less
does it matter
what doldrums
have me weighed down
feeling like i gained
300 pounds
my pants have been a bit tight
thought
it was h2o retention
the soothsayer saw
keto in my cards
no more carbs
is caffeine allowed
pour me a cup
please
before the brain freezes
am i running late
what hour is it
what day is it
it don’t matter to me
why that tune
is stuck
in my brain
just let it rain
this morn
maybe making little more
snore time
turn over
turn off the mind’s music
turn off the stream
