Monday means New Drabble Challenge!!!
This week's challenge puts you, once again, at the mercy of my brain stem.
Drabble challenge #4 is: Sleep. You know the drill. Anything goes, just try to keep it drabble length.
Go forth and drabble.
Take me, sir. Take me hard.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Sanctuary
In this place of symbol and silence, he's still alive.
Rain falls, but we stay dry. Nothing can touch us. Clouds move above us, going east to west, and patches of sunlight slide between the edges. The weather can't touch us, and everything's golden and misted and blurred.
In this perfect sanctuary of meaningless reality, he has no scars. His heart beats properly. There is no dust settling on the piano keys. He is still alive, and I've never been more alive.
Sunlight, the real thing, and it's morning.
I turn over, the bedsprings creaking, and fight to stay asleep.

brillig
Still mulling sleep.
For writers with kids, the book I have "I'd Rather Be Writing", by Marcia Golub, has a couple of chapters on things to try in order to fit writing around the demands of kids. I'd summarize, but I'm at work and propping the book up next to the computer might attract attention.

Hey, all. "I'm back and I'm a bloody animal!" And on topic, stupid spyware made it so I couldn't write either, all weekend.

Thank you...it was quite the torment for me. And not the sexy kind. And Techie Dave is as a god. Even if he thinks I'm cognitively impaired. Guess I've got to finish stuff now. My computer was like a lava lamp all weekend.

Yep...big technical problem...seems that the techie got it though. Maybe this week, I'll send what I've got as far as "crip noir"ETA: My tag is funny in this thread. But that is what happens when you e-mail your friend the editor at 7:30 AM.
