At this time of the night, or morning, as it really is, I want music,. I’m numb, my mind cannot or will not sleep. I cannot think . I cannot doze.
I’m restless, but tired,
I need someething to sooth me,
but the restless demons lurking under the surface eat away at my skin,
nibbling like gnats.
So I play jittery music,
trying to convince myself that the music makes me jumpy,
yea, that’s it,
it’s the music.
When that happens,
I change the sounds dancing through the light tunnel of iTune magic eartubes,
going directly into my jangled nerve endings
and listen to this:
“Hallelujah”
