Ode to my red-sheeted bed at 1 a.m.

My mosquito net watches over me
Tucked into the foam mattress
Catching my cell phone alarm clock
When I accidentally push it off

Sheets clinging to me
Out of love? Out of heat?

I roll to the same spot out of habit and gravity
The imprint of my body in the mattress
My bed does not want to forget me
When I leave it

This is so cute, and so funny, and so poetic, all at the same time!
