Awakenings..or the long way to a cup of coffee!

...from far far away this voice approaches my sleepy mind, in waves it flows, touches my ear, attempts to gain my attention. i turn around slowly, numb, failing in the effort to catch a glimpse of the source where the disturbance comes from. to open my eyes wide seems impossible, sleep holds me still in its clasp.

for a few moments i am walking along the thin line between the universes, its a magical place and i would like to stay here, but then, in a second, without mercy the haze is lifting. catapult from the soothing dawn into the splendid light the thoughts become clear and the obscure voice turns its murmering into words and complete sentences... i can't avoid it any longer...i am bursting into the new day.

automatically the hand reaches out to hammer the switch-off -button of the clock radio..it is 6.10 AM..i again note to myself as i did so many times before: if u dont want to wake up by recieving bad news, traffic messages or weather forecasts, set the alarm to some other time.. sublimally knowing my days will continue starting with the irritating voices, penetrating my mind, i smile silently.

one last minute of starring at the ceiling above, then my thoughts focussing on one idea,
forming one single word, the expression of all what is important in early morning hours,
the meaning for the essence which helps one to become a motivated part of the society again
the word which is the ulmative symbol for a new day's start:

Coffee!
