the morning melody

The worst part is that last night I knew the pajama bottoms Zee grabbed from the laundry basket had urine on them from the night before. I was too tired to argue with him, though. After all, it was just a little pee, and I had to smell them twice to find it. At least that's what I told myself as justification...

So, I guess it's only fitting that my morning after inspired this...

the morning melody

coffee stillness,
hint of a fan whirling released
from an opening door.

floor patter, eye rubs, and
urine soaked pjs
on my lap...

the morning melody
