This Battle for Sleep Begins Again : 3/19/2020


This Battle for Sleep Begins Again : 3/19/2020

I’m about to call it a day
Get into bed
And run the gauntlet
If I’m lucky
I’ll fall asleep
Within thirty minutes or less
I would consider that a good night
Recently it hasn’t been too bad
But there are many nights
When I can’t fall asleep
For an hour…..or two….or even three
I can’t fall asleep
Because of the intrusions
The voices
The bodily sensations
The presence of these entities
That see me as little more
Than a sitting duck
When I’m in bed trying to sleep
They don’t want me getting
A good night of rest
They are out to hit me
With sleep deprivation
When I’m feeling worn down
From lack of sleep
This makes them seem
So much stronger
And more menacing to me
In the past
They would occasionally
Deprive me of a whole night of sleep
Then the next day
I would be feeling the effect of this
And hearing the effect as well
For when I am feeling worn down
The voices become more powerful
When I sleep well
And feel rested
I have a much better chance
Of keeping the voices at bay
So here I am
It’s almost midnight
I am hearing the same old voices
They are faint…..in the background
Yet they are there
I can hear them
They are waiting for me
To make a try for sleep
Which I must do
And so this old routine begins
This battle for sleep begins again

These Devious Clever Voices

Image
It is invisible yet not impossible whatever phenomenon this is or conjoining of phenomenon these devious clever ones the things they tell me the stories.....the claims most clever they are flying under the radar the scientist won't touch this one with a ten foot pole not yet anyway though I suspect that someday they will someday.....some aspect of all of this will be stumbled upon in some big way I can only imagine the news headlines maybe some day personal writings like this may not even seem so strange written in a manner that professes them these clever voices to be the real thing certainly mysterious often horrifying  yet real.....so very real to the one who hears them *** - 4/17/2020

Hearing Voices and Ringing in the Ears : 3/19/2020

Image
Hearing Voices and Ringing in the Ears There it is The ringing in the ears And through that ringing I hear the voices speaking The invisible intruders Their voices are faint Yet there’s a sharpness to them They pierce right through The quiet of the night And that ringing That ringing that has often Accompanied these voices that I hear I remember hearing it Back in the early days Back when this oppression first started How intense that ringing in the ears was back then I remember thinking to myself That it seemed like the sound Of my mind shattering Into a thousand pieces Since those days The ringing comes and goes I most often hear these voices With no accompanying ringing at all Yet it always seems to return It always comes back around It can happen at any time Day or night And I am hearing it this night Right at this very moment *** -3/20/2020

Craftily Perfected

Image
Last night as I lie in bed somewhere....someplace between being half-asleep and half-awake this voice this intruder this presence set off shouts in my head like explosions set off shouts in my head like audio-grenades as soon as I was near the point of being asleep another shout would hit me dragging out  this most natural process this process of sleep which humans and many other life forms on this planet require almost like electric audio shock it seems this crafty voice has craftily perfected this  ability to shout create a shout like a psychic detonation create a shout like an audio howitzer create a shout like an ethereal rupture of dimension to make it take longer and longer to fall asleep and perhaps yet only perhaps to escape these astral intrusions ***
