insomnia

The work day winds down, the clouds have finally opened up to blue sky, and with my whopping one and a half hours of sleep last night, I'm wondering if I can stay awake long enough to make the 35 minute drive home. And my grade 8s . . . my grade 8s . . . are being grade 8s.

This is the song everyone/ would like to learn: the song/ that is irresistable:// the song that forces men/ to leap overboard in squadrons/ even though they see the beached skulls// the song nobody knows/ because anyone who has heard it/ is dead, and the others can't remember.// Shall I tell you the secret/ and if I do, will you get me/ out of this bird suit?// I don't enjoy it here/ squatting on this island/ looking picturesque and mythical// with these two feathery maniacs,/ I don't enjoy singing/ this trio, fatal and valuable.// I will tell the secret to you,/ to you, only to you./ Come closer. This song// is a cry for help: Help me!/ Only you, only you can,/ you are unique// at last. Alas/ it is a boring song/ but it works every time.
