A Gleefully mischievous brilliant force of light A Deep well of love in heart and mind Never-ending soulful ecstasy Transcending spiritual bliss
Startled to consciousness, the grog of sleep weighs heavy. Delicious black liquid awaits me. Resurrection. Sleep debt I require another extension. Coffee please infiltrate my brain, Swim in my synapses, lift up my soul. Dance in my bloodstream, ease the pain of nightly toll. Sleepless nights of many past, ameliorate my present state. More of …
