about

This celebration of power napping also appears on the first album by Andsome Friends. When I still had a day job lunchtime naps were essential for getting me through the day and into my preferred nocturnal work rhythms.

lyrics

I gave to sleep a heavy hour
And every mental tissue bathed
Naked in its power
Surreal and drifting, rainbow black
Submerged in depthless lidded pools
Spiralling and slack

And when I stood again like crystal
Sharp clear and glittering
Reasoning, bright
Open to clarity
Sleep's rich colours faded in the light
