Why sleep?

You sleep too little.
You say it wears you out.
I say it wears me out.
And I snooze some more.

You sleep too much.
You say it scares you out.
I say it scares me out.
And I pry my eyes some more.

But what if you sleep too little.
Too often.
You say it wears you out.
I say it burns me out.
Burns out the sugar that coated my walls.
Until I see crisp the burning fire.
Fire in the belly, firing on all cylinders.

Why bother to sleep - I'm getting no younger.
Burn me in a flash - I'm too jaded to smolder.
