I Wake Up Like a Cat In Love

I wake up like a cat; you know how a cat is. The way it opens its eyes, not seeing anything but looking into its muscle and bones, then how it blinks slowly---so slow that its eyelids wash its mind of anything but satisfaction. I even arch my back just to stretch that rubber band of pleasure.
