#wednesdaymorning
Am
looking at the ceiling
eyes are fixed on the
white rotating blades
turning around slowly
......oh so slowly
......the monotony
..........hypnotizes me
everything around me
every sound or action
is moving like a snail
the ticktocks of the clock
are droning
the water inside the kettle
is boiling without a sound, i think
thin slices of pork marinated
in soy sauce and lime...frying,
doesn't scare me...the fight between
heated oil and soy sauce
is not as noisy...not as violent
as it had been in the past mornings
i feel them all...slow and hushed
..........as a snowfall in winter
i am thinking of winter this early hour
...yet, it's summer...so hot and humid
...........hot coffee has failed to alter
.......the weary, and dreary airs
....of this early wednesday morning...
