Apperception

To sleep, or not to sleep? That is the problem.

But to sleep, for the obedient wrongdoer, in the aftermath of a wrongdoing done, is not much of a muchness of a problem.

A wrongdoing done to another, a deception, is not much of a problem to be borne, if one was ordered by another wrongdoer to get the wrongdoing done.

It’s a not-muchness of a problem that can be smashed up into pieces, like an egg; and the bits, being slowly digested, causing only a minor irritation to the oesophagus – a tickling rather than a scratching.

And with the tickle comes a giggle, as the bearer, now happy on the eggshell sertralin, drifts off to sleep – job done.

Memories dispersed.

Conscience-free.

And the next day …

Just a big itch.

In one’s bottom.
