Insomniac??

Free form as I work out my energy

Sometimes my yesterday's and todays become one

Sleep deprived 

Adrenaline flowing on a slow drip

It flows through my veins to my brain

Brings me to a point where I am still reasonably sane

Author's Note

Random free flow raw to me honest I hope. Scary, for some, but fun once you learn the ride.

Hi Willard imho you could lose the"with no sleep in 2nd line as you've said that with the first two words,could be instead,"sleep deprived......." then onto 3rd line.

thanks for the suggestion and I will make that change. I have been trimming down my words, but this one I definitely missed Appreciate the read and idea.

"Adrenaline flowing on a slow drip" this is worded perfectly Willard. I needed my coffee on an I.V today lol
Thank your sharing this great write!!

[Willard Wells]

I knew when I read your work that we were kindred spirits as they say. Thanks for visiting and commenting.

[sereenaoutloud]

I agree. It is very good and I love the picture. Wish I was there.

[Willard Wells]

Glad you popped over to check it out. The picture is 18 miles south of San Francisco in the City of Pacifica on hwy. 101.

Boy, oh boy, can I relate to this one! I'm actually dealing with this as we speak - having been that I've barely slept the past two weeks. It's actually getting really frustrating. The only thing keeping me going is my daily dose of caffeine, writing & Law & Order: SVU, ironically.

As for the writing of the poem - well done. I could easily relate to it (as you can see above).

There were, however, two grammatical & punctuational errors: "today's" should be "todays" & "reasonable" should say "reasonably".

Overall, nicely done!

You're welcome!

This is something I relate to greatly!! I struggle with insomnia myself, and you've managed to accurately put into words how it can feel. Sometimes my days and nights get blurred into one as well! However, I do favor the night because I seem to be more productive. Excellent work :)

[Willard Wells]

Tina thank you. I knew in reading your piece that you would find something you liked and as luck would have it you hit one of my favorite self ............not sure what to say. You might find some fun in the Writers Lament. Another warped view of survival with my mind. We both wander the night at some more odd hours than the common man.

I shall check that out next! And you are not alone, I've quite warped views on things as well. :)
