My
body
doesn’t
know
how
to
function
on
a
single
hour
of
sleep
.
It
sends
me
a
thousand
signals
that
something
is
deeply
awry
.
My
temperature
controls
seem
to
be
failing
because
I
’m
freezing
,
but
my
shirt
is
soaked
with
sweat
.
When
I
stand
there
is
a
buzzing
in
my
legs
like
my
bones
are
full
of
flies
.
I
want
to
lie
down
on
the
ground
.
I
want
to
cover
myself
in
a
heated
blanket
and
sleep
for
days
.
But
I
hold
myself
upright
in
this
place
where
there
are
too
many
voices
,
too
many
hands
,
too
many
eyes
fixing
me
in
their
gaze. “
There
’s
nothing
I
want
,”
I
say
. “
There
’s
nothing
you
can
give
me
that
I
don’t
already
have
.”
