THIS MORNING This morning, still, winter waking, kicking off the quilt. Till now, unthinking waiting, cupping in the quiet I will stretch from—the plant uncurling toward the glass, the light gone strong enough to break it, vines reaching to it not from wanting, just not knowing how not to. Dust shifting in the sun of the air, floor waiting for the bright that stains it. What is it, this thirst in the lungs, a breath pulled tight as the shade snapped up to let it in, this waking, this dense nothing of warmth across the rug, this sweet mourning. —Robin Myers
