coffee too close to bedtime

there's a black swampy stew
bangin round in my brain
full of thuds biting through
planting shards secret pain

jaw clenches teeth
fingers clench thumb
eyelids squeezed tight
sleep will not come

the harder i try
the more that i know
that i'll never remember
to let it all go
