I’m finding there’s

 a difference between

 sleep and torpor

Sleep comes when

the body and mind

are truly tired.

Torpor says,”I’m here

Don’t you feel tired,

Take a nap.”

It’s like a false fuel guage

That tells you

You’re empty.

But if you knock it hard

The needle bounces

To full.

It takes a lot of 

faith and determination

To reject torpor.

We’ve been brought up

To feel well rested,

It is our right.

What am I to do

With this imposter?

Time to get up.
