It's past midnight,

I really should sleep

But I keep writing.

Why?

Words give me a face
of letters
of commas,
of periods.

I live without existing. I melt into the alphabet.

Isn't it wonderful?

I am nothing but an alphabet soup.

The ones I used to eat when I was younger.

What am I saying?

I am going to sleep.

In case you'd want to know, I didn't really go to sleep. I kept writing.
