The night is too diffuse
To consolidate illusion
The slightest disturbance
Acute to the predator’s ear
He rises leonine
Returns hopeless
*
Though the moon
Has more faces
The sun has a keener eye
A single aberration
Could render him unfit
For a lesser heaven (earth)
*
His heart suffers as a quarry
Expenditure overwhelming recompense
He lies at queer angles
Gathering the voices of foreign entities
Like a transistor radio

Diffuse night, evocative and compelling, really good work.
Thank you so much!
Great way of describing insomnia – luckily for me I rarely experience it, but when I do, this is pretty much how it feels!! 🙂 🙂
I am glad to hear that Helen I have a lot of trouble falling asleep I do sleep though even if not well
Love those last two lines. Wow.
Thank you =)
