SICK NOTE MORNING



the day pulls itself together
like 

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
