Alarm on the bedstand
hit the snooze and
sleep five more
climb slowly out of
sleep, walk slowly
to the shower
turn it on
turn it cold
freeze a little in the morning

you hated being cold

I wear my hair
the way you hate it
wear the shirt you never liked
you said contacts make my
eyes look bluer
I grab my glasses from my
desk and walk
downstairs
and Pavlov's dog is
dying
Pavlov's dog is
dead

Good name for the poem. I'm not a expert and
I haven't been writing for a long time.

But I think when writing you want to grab the
reader's attention. You want to make them think or laugh or feel some emotion.Keep on writing.

I know what you were going for...you are getting out of your "conditioned response" mode. Well, ME TOO!!! Pavlov's other experimental dog is dying a QUICK death! LOL!! This poem hits pretty close to home...good job.
