words to wake to

you are most yourself this morning
with your hair leaning east for
kansas city
right before you touch it
and become everyone else again
they are all contained in the television,
ads for booze, the flaming circus tent sex,
they cannot touch you in that moment
not like i can.

you know, will, you don't have to resort to commenting on your own poems. shouldn't you be out measuring waists or chewing denim or bartering for tips?
