Like A Moth About Light

though these are not the worst of times
I am not in the best of health

early to bed early to rise
makes a man healthy wealthy and wise

what of these attributes could I have
when I'm up all night almost always
living like this for years

3:08 a.m. and I just ate dinner
up from 2 p.m. without a bite
without looking away at all
from my computer screen
