To Sleep

Dear Sleep,

OH NOW you've decided to take a vacation and walk out on me haven't you? I toss and turn at night, flicker in and out of bizarre dreams, wake up later and later everyday. It's fine, we've agreed you can go out during the day, but the only times you can vacate the area at night is when I have a really important procrastinated homework assignment due in the next 5 hours. I don't understand you, I wake up shittier than when I fell asleep and that isn't how it should be at all. Good thing you didn't take the sleeping beauty job, you would've sucked at it. If you're reading this, sleep, and you've become offended by these words, then maybe you should get another job so I can hire someone else to render me nighttime happiness. We'll sort things out with the sandman tonight, fine? FINE!

Sincerely,
Your "not so sleeping" "so-so looking"
