Ablution

Singing my favorite song

as steam curls up around the tune.

Gently massaging a scrub over my skin.

Granules of coffee, chocolate, sugar

mixed with coconut and shea

shed the remainder of the day.

Steam filling the shower smells like

swimming in a coffee pot.

Inhaling deeply, lungs filling

with caffeinated vigor.
