tossing and turning

it's a rough sleep.
i go through
the list
of worries, turning the pillow
over with
each new topic
of concern.
it goes nowhere.
nothing is solved.
nothing learned.
i'm a rotisserie chicken
all night, stuck
on the spit
as i slowly
turn. i'm
exhausted when the sun
comes up.
and hungry.
very hungry.
