noisy breakfast

buttering my own bread,
wrapping this plate of
scrambled eggs around my head.

Noisy Breakfast!
Noisy Breakfast!

the thunder booms
and scares the
cups of yogurt!

Noisy Breakfast!

coffee coagulating on the spoon.
cereal congratulating itself in the bowl
stirs back from the edge, from the kiss of milk.
runny containers of digital cheese curds—

no object but breakfast.
no image but hummus.
no potential but
to eat it all.
