Recycled Sleep

Monochromatic thoughts
That whisper and weep
Man asleep
On a cot of despair
his hopes hopelessly out leap
in a singularly soundless sweep
his own house in order
he cant house keep
now on the mound of his sorrows
on a dust heap
a bicycle a bell no beep
through the windows
of his morbid world even gods don’t peep
flooded memories stuck knee deep
born as a moment of sexual excitement
9 months misery rest of life grounded
to an existence dirt cheap
what you sow someone else will reap
