Morning feeling
I've woken up, warm-eared and folded in stillness,
with a particular restless feeling
at the base of my throat.
Not a need to move forward, but to inflate
into my greatness of volume.
I breathe in until my ribs press
against the wall of my back.
I straighten my legs until they shudder.
Today, I transcend the sublunary and reach
for the edges of the world inside.
Today is:
a sanguine feeling.
