The Morning Hangover

The Morning Hangover

A Poem by Christine Peters

'Put the gun down!'


'No., I don't have a gun!'


'Here's a gun., pick it up and then put it down!'


'No., if I pick the gun up..,


I just want to sleep.,


'Here is a castle, walk around and around and you will find no gate.


Please., just let me sleep.


My mind is so awake.

Yet I just want to sleep.

Don't think about how bad I am

Or what I did last night.,


Create a story �" a vision

Any vision.

To separate me from reality.

I just need to wipe out yesterday.


Sleep.

Dream.,

Create anything in my mind

To divert me.


'Okay. I am on a beach.

I am deep in the ocean.,

I am in a glass sub.,


Please., just let me sleep.
