Kaleb Worst's Day Off

I rise with stuff in my eyes,
the residual goo from having
a good look at the gestalt,
and wake myself with water.

I turn soft on the sofa,
bouncing my leg to the optimism.
It creeps like condensation 
at the window, looking in.

Starvation of energy.
I loathe the refueling 
of an insatiable battery.
Sheepishly, I guzzle down.

What am I capable of,
if sleep and food and touch
are all arid afterthoughts?
The rest of it all.
