Mornings in the basement of winter
always bring the cold soul to the skin.
A coffee too far -- blankets too warm.
Outstretched feet beg for sensation
but I have none to spare.
The tissue of last night's clearing lies balled in a mess,
scattered by two successive coughs.
Remind myself that this is not death --
This is life. And it sucks.
