Idle Thoughts

Do sheep count people to help get to sleep?

Better yet,

Do toes sing of humans at the edge of their feet?

Beasts slumber simply, with minds well at rest

They don't know the pain of the sad, human pest

Paintings for blind men, music for the deaf

It's a pointless endeavour, that's not worth the test

I don't know if sheep count people, to help fall asleep

But I do know

Those meant to count sheep, think of questions like these.
