4am

my stomach
growls,
insisting I 
eat 
poking my 
skin 
already cant
sleep
dog snores
neighbors dream 

I lay, 
just starring 
zero money
to claim
future not 
planned
no calendar 
here,
each day I 
dream
each night I 
see

still I am
here
with a muse to
feel
a muse to gaze 
a muse to eat

morning brings sun
and coffee that 
will fill

I got it 
good
