Milgard Window installation

Double pain window crack

Eastern morning sun eats

The old Helms Bakery bought

Antique credenza

Pained surface exposed finish

Unglued knobs

Housed Bellini, Donizetti, Massenet

Opus LP’s boxed

Imbedding the hooks before

New York City opera attendance

Beverly Bubbles charmed

Before the Spotify obsession

Sweating the breakfast counter

Surveying the Los Angeles times

By skipping the middle

Hunched over letting digestion

Work growling movement

Seeping the manual Yuban drip

Filtered tap water

Saving Brita for cold hydration

Repeating ritual

Prepping for a diary day

Wake up from the Milgard nightmare
