chromatic insomnia

its all blues
and sea greens
and some other complicated word for it

on some nights, the whole house stays awake
the windows sigh and roll over
the heaters have indigestion
the clocks keep count of every last minute,
but no one talks about it until later.

later, when everything is crimson
the vocabulary is less intimidating.
