Never been one of those to be counting sheep,
Nowadays, make sure to be praying before sleep.
More and more are realising existential truths,
For rhyming I don't need to go inside mic booths.
Is time moving much faster before the end?
Things coming to pass, guess it would depend.

Good write SM. How many sheep would ya have counted?! lol.
Too many lol. And E.T.'s
The sixth sheik's sixth sheep's sick I say or at least try to say it works as a prayer the puts me to sleep out of frustration and weariness. Good read
I've never heard of that one before haha, thanks.
You are most welcome
Shaun, this is quietly powerful. The move from sheep to prayer sets the tone, and the closing question about time carries a calm but unsettling weight. It feels reflective without forcing answers…just letting the unease speak. Beautifully done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Thank you, keeps the demons out haha!
A good write about time, life, death and the fulfilment of joy and leisure. Interesting and imaginative. Nice ✍️
Thank you.
