Rock-a-By

Sleep is over-rated,
Miss getting so much done,
Not to mention the unique perspective,
From sleep deprivation,

But what a curious aspect of life,
This dreamland we’re all sent,
You want to get the better of someone,
Eventually they are somnolent,

This must be the nature of matter, no?
All things just need some rest,
A twenty-eight billion dollar market,
For when we are deadest.
If you don’t sleep?
You will just die younger,
Amazing we’ve time to ponder ourselves,
Between that, breathing, conflict and hunger.
