Tonight I'm watching a film, Waterloo
Starring Rod Steiger as Napoleon
After three or four nights when sleep took too
Few hours, too tired to do much once again
Played devilish good uke though, glam rock once reigned
And returned to the throne here in my flat
Last night, couldn't sleep, got up, buried in
My excellent Stephen King book. I sat
On the sofa, half-dressed in the cold, but
Was engrossed in my reading, and when through
After reaching a good place for stopping
Was still wide awake, but the lack of heat
And the disappearing night forced me to
Try to sleep a while, until work began
