dying for those little slices of death

sleep - those little slices of death, how i loathe them. a little sleep quote by edgar allan poe. sorry, mr. poe, i think i'd like to disagree with you - i think i need to sleep so bad that any dose to numb the mind would do. but overall, i do like mr. poe. i used to read the tell-tale heart so many times before, just to figure out if there is more to the literal meaning of the story. how i fucking adored imagining hearing a beating heart somewhere. seriously, wouldn't that be gorgeous to hear on 12sumsum at midnight when you can't sleep at all, and you would go wickedly crazy because no one could actually hear it but yourself? i mean, at this point of distress, i'd rather be scared than be bored; at least in fear, there's intensity, instead of just lying around waiting for sleep to invade.

i heard a car screech about a minute ago. fucking teenagers kill themselves on the road all the time.
