MIDNIGHT SNACK: VIRTUAL WRITING VERSION

(for Physical and Spiritual Hunger: Reading from Zephaniah)

by Dreamy Poetess

Lying awake in this dark, hot and quiet place,

Contemplating something to fill this empty space.

Right at this moment it is hard to paint my face,

‘Cause I am hungry, I can’t follow the time’s pace.

In the middle of the night, I was awakened.

I cannot go back to my sleep that was broken.

There’s nothing new about it, I can’t be shaken,

For waking up at this hour is hunger's token.

So I went to the kitchen and looked for some meat.

Yet find nothing, not even a morsel of wheat.

So then I tried to look for something good to eat.

I cook some oats and wait silently in a seat.

In the moment when I satisfied my hunger,

I felt a relief, but still wished for another.

Even if tonight I cannot help but wonder,

Instead of sleeping, my phone links to the router.

I cannot go back to sleep, it’s like insomnia.

But I know that I have to, I have anemia.

I know it is not because of paranoia,

But instead of sleeping, I read ZEPHANIAH.

I read the seventeenth verse of the third chapter,

God is in our midst, He hears the softest whisper.

He is always with us, for He is our Saviour.

We won't fret, even on things that make us suffer.

Now I'm afraid to succumb to a deep slumber,

Lack of sleep, a morning start I may encumber.

Then I remembered to do the things that matter.

They may be the cause of my restless sleep's tether.
