horrid creature of my mind

horrid creature of my mind

A Poem by Joshua Smit
"

sleep/insomnia personified

"
Horrid creature of my mind,
how you hound me in the day
and elude me in the night.

in your hands is great power,
you can take me to places ive never been,
show me things ive never seen.
you can make my life hell,
kill my focus,
disable productivity

sleep, you horrid creature of my mind,
how you stalk me in the day
yet evade me in the night

when sought, you are no where to be found,
when needed, you're never profound
Yet when your not welcome,
you will sneak into my soul,
grip controll of my body,
and dull my mind

sleep, oh you evil creature of my mind
if I didnt need you, you wouldve been gone long ago

a persistent, omnipresent creature.... very well defined and then confirmed by self realization. A Prose study well told and crafted. Each stanza brings the reader more and more information that spurs them on to the end. This is very original and creative, kudos.
