Sleep
Draw bolt across door,
blinds against sight. Call
darkness into each room,
light by light by light put out,
as though you wiped names
from a slate, named this place
as your own – peace until dawn.

Legal Disclaimer
- First off, I’m not your lawyer. This is a strictly personal weblog which muses both on legal issues and my personal experiences. Writing to me does not make me your lawyer. Asking questions of me does not make me your lawyer. Any writings in this blog (or any links from it) are simply not legal advice, either generally, or in reference to anyone’s specific circumstances. Do not rely on anything you read here as a definitive statement of the law or as legal advice. Laws vary from place to place. If you have legal questions or require legal advice, contact a local lawyer, or better, several lawyers. All comments here reflect the changing views (such as they are) of the author, not my employer or any other person or party.

Thanks, it's older, but I was tinkering with it and thought I'd repost my slightly changed version.
