it comes and it goes
for anyone who visits this can tell you
I finished the show
about people I like
that some people like
and some people tell me
I’d seen a few things
fucked a few more up
loved a lot, lost a few
and loved still a bit even after that
so overall should sleep well – at least for tonight
but this, my pre-slumber checklist,
means it’s not just me anymore.
the teeth stuff
and then the sinus spray
advil for my whiskeys
and simply sleep for the rest
potion for the facial hair that won’t grow
and a mask to keep away the interruptions
it sure isn’t my last year’s
and the ones to come will sure have friends
so, sleep knowing you loved and have seen
’cause the only thing that changes now is the dosage.
