    I am failing
    to sleep at 4:38am
    because sleep escapes me.
    I am failing
    to write
    because my thoughts won't sit still
    & stop wandering
    to places
    they have no business going.
    I am listening
    to 'Blues & the Abstract Truth'
    because Oliver Nelson or Coltrane
    usually calm me
    yet
    I am failing
    to be calm.
    I am sleepless
    in Sarasota --
    the sleepiest city
    in America
    at this hour
    when you cannot buy
    a book
    or a cup of darjeeling.
    NY
    is cold now
    but at least
    it is open 24/7.
    I am failing
    to make sense
    of this day
    of these feelings
    of my life...
    It has been a long night.
    It will be
    an ever longer day.
