Poetry Assignment: Sleep

A parody this time:

Insomnia

Because I would not stop for Sleep
He would not stop for me
I chased Him hard with all my charms
But He said, "stay away!"

He resented me for leaving Him,
Jilting Him for books
But now I wanted Him back
Not just for His good looks.

He didn't care; He ran away
Although I loved Him so
He took His case before a Judge
And got his TRO.

Yes! Ditto what Phil said! I had to look up what a TRO was - then I was like, ha!
