Nighttime Stories for Sleep-Deprived Students

in the (dorm-ified) childhood bedroom

there was a roomba going vroom

and a yet unworn halloween costume

a laptop humming

a light blinking

a desk and closet and siblings throwing fits

and a student who wanted to give less shits

goodnight room

goodnight moon

goodnight sections held at 3 a.m. on zoom

goodnight light

and the roomba going vroom

goodnight books

goodnight nooks

goodnight online aesthetic cooks

goodnight laptop

goodnight tabletop

goodnight poli sci class i’m about to drop

goodnight stars

goodnight sunrise

good morning swollen eyes

and to that chicken next door making dying noises as it cries
