Quiet Ruler

Simple man
How do you rest
Explain for me
I don't know many of you

This world makes you scarce
Is sleep a kind of adventure
I feel I've missed its meaning
Release from cares, or is

It simple understanding
That leaves you with your ease

I only do fear and loathing,

not performances, in Vegas.

Seriously, what is it with the punctuation? An affectation or do you not realise that you don't use a space before punctuation marks?
