Chap stick

Lying in bed
I smiled
And split
My chapped
Upper lip
So I rolled over
And pulled out
The drawer
In the nightstand 
My eyes scanned 
Still sleepy 
The pills 
The ear plugs
The cough drops 
And then
The chap stick 
On the far side
Of the drawer 
And I thought 
To myself 
At least
I can see
What I’m looking for
And now
All I have to do
Is reach

Feeling good working

Jasmine green tea
Is enough
Of a drug
For me
As I can’t help
But bob my head
And bounce
To the electronic music
In my headphones
Standing at my desk
Looking through
The ten-foot-tall windows
That show Denver
In winter
The flat buildings tops
Are all white
With snow
Bright
And blinding
I squint
Smoke billows
From the icicle-bearded
Pipes
And AC units
The crane stands
Erect and idle
