Writers Do Not Sleep

Leave me alone
I don’t want to write
Don’t you know
It’s the middle of the night?

Go away
Let me have my peace
It’s not time for writing
It’s time for sleep

Go on then
I will review some work
Polish them up
Wipe off any dirt

A new idea?
I’ll note it down
Listen to it a few times
See how it sounds

Oh no!
What is this?
A new poem rises
Out of the abyss

Revisions done
Pen put aside
Finally I can get
Some sleep tonight
