Troubles keeping from sleep,
Oh what struggles to keep…
Time to let go
Before he sinks low,
He’ll be an exhausted heap!
–
Desperation comes,
The pinnacle of his sums…
Adding up fast
To disastrous blast,
Never ready for what comes!
–
His dad had a similar feat,
Struggling in his sleep…
Sat bolt upright:
“Lord–You take it, Alright?”
And fell into deep, peaceful sleep!
–
Obsession easily comes,
Will you stick to your guns…
Give it the Lord–
Peace then restored–
Doze off after a few “ho-hums”.
