morning news

i never did like honey-

dew drops

are meant for mornings

and coffee is made for news.

i rub the ink

off the paper,

thinking of better stories than this

awkward spouting of

tallest told truth

i ever did hear

to tell to myself

this fine fucking morning.

you are in the shower,

so i will soak up all the rays.

the sun looks better on me

any old fucking way.
