I need to sleep well,
\nbut sleep is a waste of time,
\nso I will sleep late.<\/p>\n

I want to sleep late,
\nbut I will wake up late,

Damned be my eyes,
\nwhy cannot it be closed now?
\nI want to sleep well.<\/p>\n

Still open I see,

Close I beg you please,
\nto see sunlight ere I sleep,

Costa said failing to recycle costs the city money. It’s paid $11 a ton for glass, cans and plastics and $30 a ton for newspaper, Costa said. Statewide, the average cost to take municipal trash to a landfill is about $57 per ton, according to the state Department of Environmental Protection.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
