what do you do when you can't get to sleep?

[betteroffbad]

questionoftheday asks: What do you do when you can't sleep?

My answer:

when I can't get to sleep I mostly just lie
in my bed and stay there with each eye
closed and think "well at least if I can't get to sleep
I can lie here in bed and just let my thoughts creep"
and if they're fun thoughts then I'll just let them breed
but if they're unpleasant I get up and read
