I've been suffering from insomnia for the past two weeks, almost three, and Its finally starting to get to me. I've had bouts before but nothing this long. At first I fought it - laying in bed for hours, my eyes closed hoping for the best. Then I acquiesced - no fighting it so I'll ride it out reading or writing through the night till daybreak. It wasn't so bad at first, "soul's midnight" becoming something I look forward to, the world outside growing deathly quiet, the silence broken only rarely by a train passing in the distance or a car on the road down the street - 3am and so many passing on in so many places it begins to feel like you can sense their departing. The dead of night everything seems in stasis as if to allow one last parting moment to be taken in - taking time so that it can make its presence felt more acutly than in the grey morning or the light of day. How can one not "die peacfully in his sleep" at such a time as this.
Right now, I would settle for sleep alone.

progressive artist-types tolerated.
there is a quiet old dick 3 houses-down-and-across-the-street who flies his texas flag just below old-glory....ah...but you never see him.
i think he's on his ham-radio all day.
but most everyone 'round here flies a red-white-and-green flag with an eagle
eating a rattlesnake on a cactus. so yeah...no kkk marches lately.
