i sleep a lot these days
practicing for the days ahead
i will be an olympic sleeper
dreamless
on my back
in a narrow bed
i plan to win a medal
the gold for sleeping
the fastest time
in infinite sleep
the cosmic anthem
wll play for me
a million bones
will applaud
but i will not
hear not
wake
up

You're going to have to go some to beat me, both in sleep, and death.
I liked your piece, it employes brevity with great effect.
