waking up again

again I wake up
early in the morning
this time I decide to study
in an electronic book

then from my reading
an idea for a new game
play it out
mentally electronically
in the cloud

sleep again for an hour
and for the first time
since last Tuesday
exercise on the elliptical

he loved life and fun
now it seems I’m back
to being in life
and contemplating
fun

yes
I’m also thinking
of his lonely kitchen
such a haven with him
in it

I loved
each time I was there

he loved life and fun

here I am
back to being alive
again

thanks Steve
