Poem of the Week-Stopping

I want to sleep for seven hours

Uninterrupted

Stop urination,

Stop dribbling

Stop dry mouth

Stop temperature aggravation

Stop staring at the ceiling

Stop hypnotizing my self

Stop stomach pain

Stop Gas pain

Stop bone ache

Stop itching from mosquito bites

Stop my husband from pulling the

100% cotton sheets

Stop corneas from crusting

Stop wanting to wake up before the seven hours

Stop worrying about nothing

Stop being stopped up.
