Didn't Sleep ....


         ..... i didn't sleep too well. I woke up in the middle of the night. A spatter of rain was rustling like cellophane at the window. The whiskey was wearing off and i was myself in a flicker of panic ; a middle aged man lying alone in darkness while life fled by like traffic on the freeway.

  1. Traffic on the freeway...How accurately you have said! Cannot think of a better comparison for life!
