Sleeplessness the New Vacation

The Out of Control, Out of Present, Out of Body Phenomena:  Anesthesia

Count backwards, he whispers.
Suddenly, everything’s a blur.
My conscience is muddled,
yet incapable of worry.
The ensuing fog is quick;
I can’t make it to one.
floating, floating, gone.

The Essence of Lavender

An odoriferous rouse
this wee purple flower.
It’s variation of use,
it’s extraordinary power.
Ice cream, lemonade, perfume, soap for hands and knee-
vinegar for cooking, relief from a sun burns tear-
medicinal aromatic oils and calming fragrant tea.
Oh, sweet lavender, I’m so glad you’re near,
along with the mountains and sea I hold dear.
