I need to pipe down.

Sometimes, I think I need to, 

Just sit my coffee down. 

Sit my coffee down and go to sleep 

Before my delirium and weary typing fingers 

Tear everything I already don't have in two. 

All of the things that run through my mind 

I shouldn't share, but I do anyway. 

What have I got to lose?

But setting the coffee down and going to sleep may make you lose focus on the present and persistent thoughts rolling through your head. What if the tearing in two is just the creation of some paper hydra spouting more ink monsters? I think this piece captures the pre sleep delirium perfectly and the thoughts that accompany said delirium.. And I am personally fond of the unfiltered thoughts. Amazing writing!
