Sleepless Gold Silver & Bronze So the OwlSleepless, adj. To be without or unable to sleep This piece portrays the ancient queen Penelope, as related by the poet Homer. Penelope is unique in that she is never described in terms of physical appearance. Instead we know her for her loyalty and her cunning, with which she hoodwinks 108 for three years by weaving at her loom every day, and unpicking her day's work every night.
