Before this, I was approximate.
A rough outline of a person,
sleepwalking through wakefulness.
Then the hot water,
the steamed milk,
the slow pour of steeped spices
into a ceremonial chalice.
My edges refine into sharper contrast,
definition improving,
my hands grasp the work.
The day has begun in earnest,
and - finally -
I activate.
