Nights Sleepless Steal Time Poem by Terence George Craddock

Nights Sleepless Steal Time

Rating: 5.0

yes there were times
of no time busy
studying working demands

in trade professional
careers fate sealed
shut sometimes months

a few years
with no writing
but effort to find time to write

when could
effort to make time
go nights sleepless steal time

COMMENTS OF THE POEM
M.J. Lemon 10 July 2024

This is fantstic, Terence. Stealing from the night is a brilliant image and metaphor for how the writer must work to survive. How much treasure do we actually manage to steal from the night?
