Read a poem by another poet written
on the same day:

maybe this is the month
i don't sleep
maybe that's it
maybe if i just don't
plan or anticipate or expect
to sleep all night
it won't feel like i'm so groggy
after all i'm only awake
a few sorry minutes

----------

night terrors
yes indeed

a tall person to my right
leaning into the chest of drawers
we get all
no questions answered
avert all days

there was another too-
don't remember
does it happen
most of the time
and I just don't remember
