Nightly

I'm in addiction (the doctor says need)
Of my nightly six hours of sleep,
Hours I'd like back to pay myself first
From a schedule that's otherwise ready to burst.
So instead what I get every night is a choice
Between forging a path into the future for my voice
Or paying mind to the old master-iconoclasts
Who put words in my mouth with their voice from the past.
