Grocery List of Insomnia

pollen count surrounded by allergies and too much information

cedarness a cardinal not good at hiding itself

skunk hour every hour on cool nights

1/3 moon 1/3 owl 1/3 dog the grocery list of insomnia

political theater ushers stumble over their own words

gun talk lies same arguments different day

side effects the unknown road of covid vs. the vaccine

late afternoon a water strider's ballet

wall clock insomnia one ticks while the other tocks

frozen facebook page unfriended by winter

insomnia what do sheep count

years of neglect in the barn's collapse 

black ice a skid turns serious

doctored documentary this is not what happened

subtle changes in the gray to grey clouds

the spaces of loneliness, the senseless clutter

repurposed keys and the doors they went to forgotten

as though I needed a second opinion the moon shedding some light on my insomnia
