and unable to sleep -

[Alan Sondheim]

and unable to sleep -
the dawn lingers far beyond the day -
the dusk attends low mornings and high noons -

and unable to weep, i
find my thoughtless self alone, and weigh
time after time, against the gathered runes -

and unable, to keep my days and nights apart
i dream these films, and let them have their say
while all alone i sing my sleepless tunes -
