Wolves That Howl Poem by Gypsy Boy Ravey

Wake each day at half seven
Another day in CAT B heaven
Afraid am I to peep
Through me eyes and ruin my sleep

It’s my minds only escape
That time I’m not awake
Planned is each waking day
To try and sleep the night away

Through desperate eyes that want to weep
I pray for sleep and pray it’s deep
And even though it’s just illusion
Sleep is such soothing delusion

Take any sleep that comes my way
But never ever through the day
For nights not sleeping are the worst
Feels like you’re laying in a hearse

Take any sleep that I can get
My only time without a fret
For being in jail alone and dark
Brings wolves that howl not dogs that bark

Insomnia brings the horror
Of being in jail again tomorrow
Insomnia reveals
What the darkness conceals
