#165 a.m. prep

my eyes want to close
unadjusted to the early hour
i force them open
guilty for not showing them more sunrises
my feet want to walk back to bed
but i shuffle them to the kitchen
to pack sandwiches and gorp for the hike
my stomach pleads for pepto-bismal
instead i feed it orange juice
my Lab wants to go
I open the door
