Not
that
I
usually
do
but
after
long
periods
of
not
having
someone
alongside
me
under
covers
,
sleeping
is
an
unwelcome chore-
but
when
I
wake
up
restless
,
early
,
then
I
tell
myself
I
can
watch
Saved
By
the
Bell
as
I
dress
.
I
don't
even
like
TV
or
squawking
in
the
morning
.
I
don't
even
like
hearing
someone
else
breathing
when
I
close
my
eyes
.
What
I
want
is
perhaps
a
silent
, malleable
lump
of
flesh
to
grasp
and
sculpt
in
my
undirected sleep_ruminations.
Sometimes
I
cradle
my
slight paunch
for
this
purpose
.

sunday
has
its
rainy
, slushy
way
of
pouring
itself
on
me
as
if
i
were
coffee
beans grinded
to
perfection
.
now
there's
so
much
to
put
down
.
a
bird
with
ink
on
its
feet
walking
all
over
the
paper
.
