to wake. to lie there. to open apps. to forget immediately, or to ignore. to be pulled down, to gravitate. to rot, despite light. to feel dying. to peel away from the heat. to feel sticky, stuck. to wash, to brush, to take a dump. to forget (ignore) the hair. to forget (ignore) soap. to have a down day. to not get up all the way. to go braless. to feel the sag, irritating. to be pulled down, to gravitate. to decompose. to order Uber, and not tip. to be poor and mean. to feel choiceless. to drink tea, take meagre pleasure from an egg wrap. to feel like the egg. to speak to a loved one. to be a ghost. to love a ghost. to think of them. to clock in, to log on, to work. to be pulled down, to gravitate. to startle in october's sun. to be stirred slow like a crispy leaf.
