i like showering. i always have. itโs so comforting to stay stagnant while the world moves over you, hot water hitting your back. i zone out in the shower because i shower in the morning. i get sleepy. i like to listen to punk music in the shower to stay awake. i like to wash my hair. i like to stretch my fingers and crack my back on the side wall. i love to run the water through my hair, let it fall flat and slick. i like the way it makes my hair curl, my face warm. i like how the world fogs around me. i think about my girlfriend and coffee and work and i feel groggy, admittedly, but hopeful. morning showers are lovely
