the day pulls itself together
like
a
monster up on its hind legs
for the first time
it
disguises itself
as
an
emergency
and
gets
irritably ignored
but
the cats claws on my eyelids
force
my
meat pile and delicate skeleton
into
the
kitchen cold
where
i
watch
him eat
on
his simple kitchen floor world
i
ponder breakfast
but
shower
instead
and
wash the nights clinging anxiety
away
again
