The garish day doth interrupt the night

A momentarily lapse in which we grieve

Until dark’s warm embrace dissolves the light

And showers us night’s gifts which we receive

The comfort of an old familiar friend

The sweet release of sleep, perchance to dream

The rapt embrace that never seeks its end

The glorious midnight sky with stars agleam

From dawn till dusk your vision is attacked

By photons shooting signals to your brain

By overstimulation, high impact

Designed to make you frantic and insane

How fortunate that I cannot recall

A day where blessed night refused to fall.
