Hit Me Hard

Pinch me, smack me, hit me hard

To make sure I’m awake for this.

Heighten my attention span

To full capacity.

Crowd my thoughts with diligence,

Alert my eyes to sight,

Turn my hearing up a notch

To maxed utility.

This I never thought I’d see,

Never dreamt I’d hear.

Your fervent apology

Is music to my ear.

I do not wish to miss an inch

Of measure from your bard.

So let me say and say again

In earnest,

Hit me hard.
