I was born into a family of sleep disorders.
Narcolepsy father,
insomnia mother,
a night terror brother
and a few sleep apnea grandparents.
Some nights, I feel weights
pressing down on my skin, unbearable
and iron bars, locking my joints
tight as deadbolts.
Sleep paralysis, or maybe I'm just afraid
as anyone would be.
