hey
zlnut
the coffee of the day
~~~
flick
of the tail
mowgli’s peace of mind
is never that peaceful
(except during catnaps)
(and even then…)

a short poem day
interesting
coffee

sometimes
you just need
some saxophones screaming at you
[from your tiny laptop speakers]
with crazy drumbeats
drumming
cymbal beats
into your soul
as a way to wake you up in the morning
and sometimes
you just need
to take a little break from
morning pages poetry
to talk with your spouse
and make them blush
at how much love
you have
for them
and sometimes
you just need
coffee.

when a small animal scratching from inside the walls
wakes you up like
your cat scratching at your apartment door
before six am
it is always a good idea to
heat up some coffee
and go outside with your kip and your dog
to watch the sun rise
(even if you can’t see the sun past the tree line)
what is it about
the rattle of an old farm house
basement heater
that makes me feel so
automatically
cozy?

last night there was a cockroach
poking its feelers out from it’s rooftop hideaway
and at night it caught me by the creeps
but today in the
afternoon brightness
complete with my coffee and sun hat
i’m not quite as creeped
and maybe that’s the lesson for today:
the despair from yesterday
can turn to creativity today
which maybe someday could develop into
flow[tomorrow]
