Night Mares and Stallions

Audio Recordings / tagged Dreams, Sleep / April 28, 2024 / by neil_2015_wordpress@neilmeili.com

Bucked off half asleep and knowing
it was the one from last night and the night before
and who had given you the bad advice to get on again
and what happened to that gentle pony led by a halter rope

Sub Morning

Audio Recordings / tagged Dreams, Procrastination, Sleep / April 27, 2024 / by neil_2015_wordpress@neilmeili.com

I fool with the hatch
of my dream submarine

Time for lists and lights
and surface flights

Or time for one more dive

Rest less

Audio Recordings / tagged Humor, Insomnia, Sleep / March 18, 2024 / by neil_2015_wordpress@neilmeili.com

Counted sheep
until all the sheep were asleep

Stayed awake till dawn
to protect them from the wolves

With thanks to Chance Keezel for late night inspiration

Bear Wisdom

Audio Recordings / tagged Conscience, Guilt, Hibernation, Regret, Sleep / February 15, 2024 / by neil_2015_wordpress@neilmeili.com

Bears can sleep the winter through
because they take no regrets to bed

And if you try to bring them some
they'll wisely bite you dead
