Sleep On My Mind Poem by Reason A. Poteet
Sleep On My Mind
acrostic with a secret
Siesta - the time when every
Living mortal rests at mid-day.
Extreme heat requires naps after
Earth's equatorial high noon.
People pause at the hottest time
Of day. Some feed on reveries
Nodding off even from their play.
Meditative artist, master
Yoga practitioner, fine tunes
Mental exercise - that's sublime.
In the lightest of daydreams, I
Nudge my dissonant side to just
Desist from all labor and snore.
