Ode to the Cool Side of the Pillow
Sleep, blissful sleep
Stretching across the miles
With only one way to get the rest that you need
In this twenty four hours
Uncomfortable warmth nags at my brain
Keeping me from relaxing my best
I wonder at the meaning of this rude interruption
Until I remember the magical release
Flip it over, fluff it up
Sinking into the tingles of sensation
Why doesn’t it last, why do I keep flipping
To enjoy this cooling embrace
