I won’t give up my precious sleep!

Poetry 1 Minute

If you didn’t need sleep, what would you do with all the extra time?

I am not a bot

I need my sleep!

You’ve got me quite

wound up!

For goodness sake

If I’d more time

I’d use it for more sleep.

To be asleep is wonderful

It is our chance to dream.

It’s time to sort our muddled brain

Our time to recreate!

Stuff your productivity

It’s not what I am for!!

You don’t like unproductive hours?

You want us to work more.

I am not a unit

I’m a human being!

I won’t give up my precious sleep.

Be off! Leave me alone!

The only time I ever waste

Is when I am awake.

It’s not a waste to be asleep

Be off for goodness sake.
