ROUGH DRAFT
today did not start well –
reason being because i didn’t get to sleep –
it was too hot – i couldn’t decide on what to eat
so spent a great deal of time getting up off of the sofa
and putting my face in the fridge –
i didn’t feel tired – at 6 o’clock in the morning
as an insomniac –
you learn different levels of tiredness –
and their intensity
my mind turned to today’s tasks –
shower being number one
and two, getting the bed sheets and pillow cases into the wash
i turned on my laptop
for it to promptly turn itself off
because i forgot to charge it yesterday
i managed to find the charger for my laptop, out of the plethora i own –
from tech i probably traded in years ago –
and could put the charger into the plug socket
without trying it the wrong way first –
my assumption was i cannot be that tired
if i am getting this right
i thought today i would send a manuscript
to an open call from a publisher –
and edit a poem to send into a contest.
