leisure suit
The weather suits my lack of clothes.
Pleasant as soft skin, the spring breeze
whispers to me through my opened window
telling me to awaken today with less debris
Inclined to oblige, momentum has become
my mantra, and mumbles through the coffee
until it drips to clear speech. Drag bristles
along teeth, slice grapefruit, and break fast
on back porch
My homing, nearly suits my mood.
I start back on removing the clutter
that has given too much amperage to metaphor
to distinguish the difference, and a path is
cleared to each window. Every door is propped
open with fans blowing out. The house has just
recently stopped smoking, and I pat its back with
love, as it clears itself through heavy coughs
I coordinate my breath with the stretching of limbs,
concentrate past attention, and reverberate vowels
off the hollow of my inner until they taste the lips
of the everything-outer. Come back to the most-of-the-time
navigator and hydrate. The water tastes like wine, and my
intoxication needs space. I tighten my shoelaces and step to stroll
Preparing my dinner suits my nutrition. The radio plays
a manageable romance. Domesticity, doesn't taste nearly
as bad when I do it myself. The house sneaks a cigarette
and for a split second, I remember how her arms felt around me
