States of Matter

I find myself

in the shivery, chilly air
that caresses your skin
as you reveal
necessity

in the vitamin c drops-
on your tongue-
that quench
your thirst for life

in the mattress
that takes your energy
and keeps you warm,
lulls you to sleep

in the states of matter
that fit
your pattern for
needs and wants

I find myself there
in the wake of
needs and wants
