Blink|Ink | ‘quick snips of mixed fiction’

Works Every Time


Breathe deep, shut your eyes, do not move. Cannot sleep.

Get up, drink some milk, go back to bed. Cannot sleep.

Turn again, count sheep, empty thoughts. Cannot sleep.

Hug John, be still, hold your breath.

PINCH, PINCH, PINCH JOHN!

John is awake and angry but your eyes are shut and you are drifting away.

Jelena Vencl Ohlrogge.
