{ i wake up}

the misty,

cold,

grey air

swirls around me

in (silence).

i some how

ended up

on the floor

of my

cold,

grey,

wooden front porch.

the taste

in my mouth

is horrid.

(just like all mornings)

i manage

to pull

myself

             up.

i walk inside

of my

grey,

wooden house.

the cool,

misty,

air

is so thick

that it

hugs my body

like a

frosty, silk

blanket.

the wooden floor

{ creaks creaks creaks}

ah,

there it is.

i find my

glass cup

right there,

in the middle of the room

on the floor.

i reach down,

and wrap my

palm,

then fingers

around the

thin rimmed,

fragile,

glass

cup.

my only cup.

i walk

towards the

wooden,

barrell full of

water.

it is

on my

front porch.

i

  dip

        the

              cup

into

the water.

i pull the cup

back out.
