I mostly don't sleep well, or easily. I spend a lot of my nights staring at my bedroom ceiling. There's a shadow on my ceiling, an elongated shape with a rounded end. In the daytime I don't know what casts it, but when the streetlight goes out around 2, I can see it clearly. My eyes are so tired that if I focus in on it, the edges seem ill-defined, like a charcoal sketch under a zoom lens. Continued observation makes it seem to swirl about within its borders. All of this is well and good, but it's only there some nights, not all.
