all caught up on those missed hours of sleep

two days past, two nights of wired brain,

shuffling across the living room carpet, lights off

quiet all around, with that frenzied internal hum

I’m better now, a three-hour mid-morning nap

all systems GO until the next late-night snafu

water starts to churn inside the mike

I wait for those boiling bubbles

my mug sits on the counter, ready to go

I just need to decide:  no-calorie tea

or the yum of chanilla* chai?
