I had slept until 8
30 or so,
the electric blanket
had shut off
and I was cold.

... and yet I had to get up,
I had to pee....

This becomes me.
You were warm there,
sleeping soundly
on your back.
I watched you there,
hesistating in the moment
until 8:30 or so
when I finally rose.
Your nose
looked so cute,
but I was resolute
in rising.
Why should anything
I do be so surprising?
