attempting to go to bed before midnight
take one: remember i wear make up these days. get up and remove eyeliner.
take two: remember a button fell off my winter coat this morning. get up, find needle and thread and sew button back on.
take three: wonder why birds are chirping at this time of night. reach for phone, google it.
take four: too early, can’t sleep. turn on light and start reading book.
