It haunts my sleep pattern,
It binds my organs into suffering,
It’s behind me when I’m not looking,
It goes by fast and out of control,
I scratch and claw at the dreams,
It dwells in every shadow,
It haunts my awake pattern,
It snaps my bones in pure delight,
It’s in front of me when I am looking,
It goes by slow and just out of reach,
I scratch and claw at the walls,
It dwells in pure light,
It will never end,
When I reach for it nothing is there,
Forever trapped in its web,
It has no starting point,
When I grasp it falls through my fingers
Forever lost in its breath,
It ticks,
It winds,
I’d hammer if it could,
I’d chisel if I might,
Where is the blowtorch,
Where is the moon,
The moon was swallowed by it,
The sun,
The sun,
Not even the sun could escape,
If not created by man,
It will swallow whole the universe.

And this is why I don’t do poetry but I can’t sleep. If you are going make bad decisions might as well make them at 3 or 4 am!

Have you tried ASMR videos for sleep? @old-guy-photos advised me on it. the soap carving one was neat- on YouTube
Some of them are kinda weird by the way
I can understand you’re thought of some of them being “weird.” I gave the soap carving one a try as well as searching some others out. My ears and imagination is not a fan of the soap carving. I’m certain that one would give me a nightmare with the way my brain works. Other ones I found seem a bit creepy and my brain runs like a rabbit on the kind of background feed that was going on from people trying to pick themselves up talking “very quiet.”
I tend to use rain and thunder to calm myself but they never do the job of helping me sleep. For whatever reason, it has to be natural rain outside my window. If it’s raining outside I’ll sleep all day sometimes. Recording of any kind never does it.
Part of the issue for me at least is not burning enough energy for the day. I wish I could fire up the treadmill at 4 am but that would wake people up.
I had limited success with the asmr. The soap carving with my eyes closed focusing on only that it made me think of early morning nature sounds and I liked it. The soft voice ones were weird and some were clearly catering to a fetish. There was a sponge one that was okay.
Yeah I hear you on the energy thing. That's part of why I do run. Why don't you run outside. Or do pushups until exhaustion? Or a bunch of lunges?
I do have some dumbbells I’ll lift. During the summers I swim. I tend to avoid any outdoor activates after dark. We tend to get a lot of wildlife. Been wanting to take a picture for a while now of one of the bear cubs but they are never out during the day time.
I prefer using a treadmill it’s just easier on my knees. The Florida humanity is also not so bad indoor. I visited some family members the other year a few states up and I was like “why it is so easy to breathe here this is insane.” I was out and about enjoying some of the green nature trails they had in the area.
I didn't realize you had bears in Florida. I used to live in mid-west Georgia during my teens it was SO HUMID. it was bad on my breathing esoecially when it got cold out becayse the air was literally wet. Ugh. Dryer air has its set of problens too but I prefer this Maryland air any day over GA humidity
They came by a few times a week and get into our garbage cans while we sleep. The city ordered a couple of “bear proof cans” thinking it was just a small issue. No one near me even got one. They have tried a few times trying to capture or bait them out. It never works and just leaves the neighbored cover in trash that they spread around trying lure them up but did not pick up afterword’s.
As if bears would run toward flood lights and flashing lights because some garbage was poured out all over the street. I give them more credit then that!
Oh yeah that doesn't seem a logical way to lure a bear!
When something is taking over your mind, Distraction is the key to get better, the brain can be trapped in circles, but if you distract yourself, it flows into order and good thoughts
I just got to keep myself busy till I’m so tired I can’t keep my eyes open anymore. Distractions usually lead to more circles for me hehe.
You need something that stops the ruminating try "league of legends" or a gripping tv show + maybe take something that helps you sleep, have happy new year!
oh LoL is good at one thing and one thing only for me-boiling my blood!
I would be playing some Path of Exile right now but then I would look out the window and half the day would of past.
Thank you for the suggestions though. Think I'm just going head over to YouTube and find something long to put on. Have a great day/night and a very happy new year!
This is really good.
Thanks, have a splendid weekend.
Thank you very much for selecting my writing to be highlighted in The Daily-Sneak!
