For breakfast I eat up my vowels, my a e i o u, to which I add from consonants a fricative or two;
After that I move my bowels then write as poets do, and frequently am quite surprised to feel a trill come through.

winter grey
the old dog running
in his dreams

    humid night -
    the old dog runs
    in his sleep
