Wake

Written by Jacob Ibrag

I wake to the sounds

of electric dance music.

Neighbors upstairs still at it,

prancing with zero regard

towards the migraine

taking over my mind.

The sun stabs my eyelids,

sucking my dream

state into oblivion.

I hate this senseless place,

what’s worse is that I love

the song that’s playing.
