The Perks of Being

Christos C. Kallis

Under the covers of the bed, in the morning hours, I pretend

To be an embryo. I stay in and retract all that is me

In the haven of the bedsheets that is a belly.

I put my headphone in my earhole and (I)

Scramble eggs. Inside I decide how to get to

Work. On the C train I was trained to kick the back of the seat. Before

I                step                outside                my                eyes        dilate

From        the sun. Out                        In the office I hear

Live Blues.
