An Accidental Nap Poem by Han Min Ohn

Picking up a book and lying on my bed
Hoping to have a good, peaceful rest
The book was opened once the place was set
Eyes then began to perform their quest.

Eyelids however soon started their protest
By drooping down over the eyes so fast
A shake of the head quickly drove them away
But they kept on performing their persistent sway.

Hands joined the protest immediately after
By relaxing their grasp on the book proper
Through an effort, control was regained
But not strong enough to keep the process baned.

The mind later also joined the mass
Into the dream world it demanded to pass
A resistance was made but largely futile
Nothing could be done but to remain docile.
