Troubled sleep
Drowsy subconscious
Lost lucidity of
Silhouetted dreams
Creativity itinerant
Like weeds otiose
Wading in idle water
Words labor upon mental
As rain drops drip from leaves
One at a time after rain
Hope clock chimes upon
Sedated mind’s will to discern
The thoughts shape less
To seize upon abstruse
Lifeless images streaking
Across screen to no avail.
