When you brushed and flossed and rinsed your teeth
You hardly gave a thought
To a gap you almost never reach
I am that spot
Those brilliant words you never said
Now rattling inside your head
Just when you needed them, you froze
I am those
The guy who was the boss’s friend
Who glared at you when
You said, “Hey everybody, this is Wayne”
I am his real name
The day is done. You lie in bed
Replaying moments in your head
You toss, you turn, you count the sheep
I am your sleep
