sleepsovereign
/ˈsliːpˌsɒvrɪn/adjectiveVerified NewAlso in: schlafsouverän (Deutsch) · sueñosoberano (Español) · sommeilsouverain (Français)
Sovereign in one's sleep — ruling the night without interference, answerable to no tracker and no schedule.
The sleepsovereign person sleeps when tired, wakes when rested, and does not audit the night. The sovereignty is the old kind — pre-app, pre-score, pre-subscription — and its citizens are the people who have never once wondered what their deep-sleep percentage was.
Etym. — sleep + sovereign — the political metaphor for the unquantified sleeper's autonomy; sovereign is exactly the state of ruling without interference.
Rel. — sleeptheater · nighttame
