5a.m. Thoughts

At five A.M. I think some thoughts:
why am I awake?
should I go back to sleep?
oh! an itch!

That's better.

Five A.M., before even sunrise, I consider.
Life-important questions:
who am I?
why are we here?
are humans really all that smart?

We're killing our planet.

Think to myself at five A.M.
what's the name of that song again?
who even sings it?
why do we care so much about celebrities?

Roll over.

Five A.M.'s gone but still I am thinking:
why five A.M. every day?
what made me wake up this time?
is there a ghost in here?

Hello, ghost.
