Loneliness

I woke up in the middle of the night,
Feeling restless and even desperate.
Is this what people call loneliness?
I felt sick in the stomach;
It made me feel really bad.
What reasons have I to be lonely?
Well, anyway, I took it in,
Chewed on it, swallowed it,
Stomached it, and digested it.
Then I went back to sleep.
When I woke up in the morning
There's this burning ache in my stomach.
It must be something I ate yesterday.
It was probably the chicory.
I won't eat chicory for supper again.
