Comfy cozy in bed
Random thoughts in your head
Along the tracks a bright light shines
A glimmer of it creeps into your eyes
Crust cracks through lashes
Forgot something in sleepiness
Throw back the covers, embrace the coldness
Of a cool night, moving towards the light
Ottoman stubs a toe
Stuffed animal laughs
Door frame slides over to graze a shoulder
Hand slides down the other side of the kitchen wall
Light from the train goes out as a switch is switched off
Wall moves to bang a knee
Pulling covers over body
Curling up to keep in the heat
Tracks are further away
Random thought rambles through the brain
About how walls move and bump into you
When you walk around half asleep
The faint sound of a stuffed animal laughing
As you drift off to sleep

I look forward to reading your thoughts and experiences regarding what happens when you’re sleeping, or are walking about while half-asleep.
