I Need Just A Few Moments Here

Almost as important
as that morning coffee

I need a few moments
to feel this body respond

To allow this mind to revel
in pleasurable things

Sometimes I choose to store it
harnessing that powerful energy
for a later time

And sometimes I am weak to the charms
of the imagination and exterior influences,
knowing that pressing need
must be satisfied
before I can tackle the day ahead

I'm still undecided what today will be.
