Too Early

caution for leaving dessert around the house
is confirmed as necessary with the too-early 
wake-up that causes dramatic enjambments 
in poems (those lines of verse that cascade 
down to the next line before the rhythmic
has beaten itself out) and of course the self
abnegation (and what does that mean) that
comes with being up too early, drinking too
much coffee, and using the word too to describe
things that are part of nature, part of the creative
process and part of the dream that life is, the
simulacrum of pluralities lost and boundaries
found
