SLEEP

or FOR HARPER

for HF, SF and HF

Sleep is what you do,
what you've done,
what you've did.

And when you are held
you are asleep.

Strange, to be born asleep
to be asleep
to sleep.

One day you will wake.
One day you will open your eyes
and hands.

One day you will not be asleep.
Your eyes and hands will open.
Your mouth will open.

Then you will not be asleep.
