should be sleeping

should be sleeping
up since four am
asleep barely by midnight
must be insanity
new twitch under
the left eye
emotions left like mud
relieved it wasn’t
twenty-four year voyage
leading only to deeper division
jumping from one ship
to another doesn’t seem
as bad as once thought
don’t get the wrong idea
still a high wire tightrope
made of razors underfoot
splitting right up the middle…
