Sleep/less

Sleep is for the meek
I have heard
     the early bird
          never squirms
waters fall in time with waking
lighter slumber stumble, slaking
thirsty minds with daylight dreams
eyes that hunger for street steam
breathe it in the garbage sense
scented before four A em
sounds like work and work and while
away the bulwarks cannot smile
defense offense do not rest
all your tired's for the best
