don't ruin things for me

i do like the familiar.
the same
coffee,
the same eggs over easy
with hashbrown
and bacon,
the paper on the porch.
i like
the big couch
by the window.
i like my shows,
my books,
i like
this one blanket in
particular
that i curl under when
it's time
for sleep.
i like it when i place my
fingers
on the keyboard,
creating
words on another blank page,
i am a creature
of habit,
of comfort.
don't ruin things for me,
by insisting,
that i leave the house.
