That’s right before your eyes
It’s the way healing vies
For attention

Toss and turn, pillow punch
The goal, to fall asleep
Warm and cozy and deep
Eyes wide open
Sheep, uncooperative
Useless trying warm milk
Switch to flannel from silk
Teddy bear mocks

Scourge of the peaceful realm
Rascal knave garrulous
Armed with wit scurrilous
Have you no shame
Cease your verbal assaults
Turn full from yon door
Show your face, nevermore
Away with thee
