sleep police

i'm back in the slc doing the daily grind of finding the right job so the other day my friend tara & i went to the beautiful city library (which i saw more of an appreciate and love more now). while we were there i was typing away at resumes, cover letters, etc. while tara snuggled into a seat near me took a lil snoozer.
then out of know where she was awakened by a cop. they woman shook her and said nothing. i didn't see the sleep police approach us because she came from my back. it startled us both and then we were just confused. is it unlawful to fall asleep at the library? we've seen people do this act for eons of time. tara didn't look like she was homeless. i came to the conclusion that it was because she was using another chair to put her legs up and it's like the trax rule of keeping your feet off the seats. either way she was slightly frightened to fall asleep again but she did anyways. and unbeknown st to the both of us there's sleep police roaming the library. watch out!

I used to know some 'o the sleep police personally. Man, that job's gotta suck. Who wants to be the face that disturbs others' dreams? Or, worse yet, the one that haunts their subsequent nightmares?

This is a form of torture that the USA has perfected. Preventing REM sleep is just one method of keeping the people under control and following the orders of the man. Is it really a coincidence that it is happening in the library...the birthplace of knowledge? I hope my sis did not suffer too much and that she has recovered.
