Two test revisions,
and a journal to fill in:
Not too much to pay.
but then there’s the mind
that loves to rehearse
that loves to fantasize.
The cost of sleep is
the end of peace.
Thoughts of maybes
and could bes
and I want to do mores.
The cost of sleep is
time gone by, lost.
The cost of sleep is youth,
is age; unconscious space
The cost of sleep-
too high.
