%) Turmoil at 3 a.m.

At night phantasmagorias churning
suppress one, others proliferate
Fitfully asleep tossing & turning
worries pack punches, regurgitate

The petty & inane astound
like stuck inside a theme park
By heels, face down on grimy ground
dragged around in fog & dark

At last: Morning’s first light gets me reprieved
awake, sweat drenched, elated and relieved

-phantasmagoria = a changing medley of real or imagined images
