Someone decides to play
God on an impulse, taking
Advantage of the hour
Before anyone glorious enough
To stop you is awake. An exercise
On digestion: stretch the tract’s
Limit before it churned the last
Excess dose. If one is lucky
Enough, you’d taste what
Mother made for breakfast, brew
A fresh pot of coffee and limp
Through another day. Here’s hoping
The next time that thought
Plays, you’d be strong
Enough to recognize it.
