Alone in the night,
Away from those who right now doze,
Now it is finally alright
To ponder poetry or prose;
Now, I am allowed to think,
To spend a little time on me;
I've no sleepy eyes, not e'en a blink,
And they all now will let me be;
They -the one's that peck at me,
They -who demand, complain,
They think it's insanity;
Surely, it's what keeps me tame.

create. Or edit my manuscript. I loved your Poem. It sums up what so many people feel so they won't go insane. (LOL)
Liked your poem! Keep writing, it's good!
