Merit

today you pounded the keys
walked out under gray skies but didn't really look up
reflection on the pavement was enough

today is like a day I forget to eat
and that is what I did though drinking 3 cups coffee

my cat slept 5 hours more than me
andI slept on none since waking at 8 o clock

the sun has seen fit to fall and I am out up on my feet
it will drop into the 30s once it moves dark

today there is no food in the fridge that isn't coated in green fur
dead as stuffed turkey and gizzards cold food from the past

I will move past it and down the elevator
down the stairs and into the bitter chill of almost december.
