The Discovery of Coffee
The Discovery of Coffee
Her spirit was first made flesh
before the fall of Atlantis
in the ancient coffee forests
of the Ethiopian plateau
where she was the first
to find out that the bean
was more than something
picked by children for fun
And she was the one of those kids
Who gathered magic beans for play
Only to learn that they made much more
Than a basket full of pretty seeds
But when dropped in a pot
Held over a fire
Became a...

Polynesian Barista
Polynesian Barista
She is the fragrance
Of an orchid Lea
From a South Sea Hulu dancer
Whose grass skirt waves
In the tropic breeze
Her Pele spirit a lava flow
Across smoking slopes
Of denim shorts
Vested in bosom sacraments
Whose black flag
Hides pink periwinkles
Her smile the promise
Of lipstick luau
For photographic eye safari
When her conch shell timbre
Sounds from the blue cathedral
Where cetaceans dream
She is the fragrance
Of an orchid Lea
From a South Sea Hulu dancer
Whose grass skirt waves
In the tropic breeze
Her Pele spirit a lava flow
Across smoking slopes
Of denim shorts
Vested in bosom sacraments
Whose black flag
Hides pink periwinkles
Her smile the promise
Of lipstick luau
For photographic eye safari
When her conch shell timbre
Sounds from the blue cathedral
Where cetaceans dream

Chemistry
The train rattled softly through the Georgia pines, golden hour spilling over fields of cotton like melted butter. I was scribbling equations in a weathered notebook—half-work, half-daydream—when the compartment door slid open.
She entered like a controlled reaction: precise, inevitable. Her curls were auburn chaos pinned with a pencil, and her eyes held the warm, calculating gleam of a labradorite gem. A faded "Standing on the Shoulders of Giants" tote-bag hung from her shoulder, stuffed with a biology textbook and a dog-eared copy of 'Cosmos'.

Daydreams of a Barista
Daydreams of a Barista
Her mischievous smirk
Is a rosebud of lipstick
That she ties in a ribbon
Like a Valentine’s gift
For secret admirers
But the dark loam
Of her forest dreams
Are spun into mossy opium
When the aroma of cappuccino
Steams her into the heart of a coffee flower
And she blossoms like a note
Suspended in a Debussy dream
As her perennial rose
Is a syrinx in the nocturne of love
When her unquenchable fire
For the rich pageant of fabled lore
Turns into the magic of...

Sparks and Embers
Sparks and Embers
She is the torchlight
Reflected in the eyes of a Valkyrie
When midnight moonlight
Shimmers in the pleats
Of her Stygian skirt
Like the dance of hearth flames
Unsheathed
In the naked starlight
She flickers
Like the fiery scimitar
Wielded by the angel
At the portals of Eden
She is the dream
Of a lonely wolf
That knows the soul
Of jasmine burning
With the fragrance
Of her lupine heart
She is the torchlight
Reflected in the eyes of a Valkyrie
When midnight moonlight
Shimmers in the pleats
Of her Stygian skirt
Like the dance of hearth flames
Unsheathed
In the naked starlight
She flickers
Like the fiery scimitar
Wielded by the angel
At the portals of Eden
She is the dream
Of a lonely wolf
That knows the soul
Of jasmine burning
With the fragrance
Of her lupine heart

Leatherette Angel, Seated
Leatherette Angel, Seated
Eyes small as raindrops
In the April mists of dawn
When faux leather boots
Cover the calves
Of her glacial blues
Her gaze focused like a sunbeam
In a magnifier glass
That burns the paper of my soul
Into a smoking fire
With her derriere the sun,
Seen peeking through clouds
Of denim shorts,
That ignites my passion
With the Siren song of youth
To seduce my soul
As Samhain approaches
In the orchard of dreams
Whose apples are ripe
With the blush of maidenhood
Eyes small as raindrops
In the April mists of dawn
When faux leather boots
Cover the calves
Of her glacial blues
Her gaze focused like a sunbeam
In a magnifier glass
That burns the paper of my soul
Into a smoking fire
With her derriere the sun,
Seen peeking through clouds
Of denim shorts,
That ignites my passion
With the Siren song of youth
To seduce my soul
As Samhain approaches
In the orchard of dreams
Whose apples are ripe
With the blush of maidenhood

The Tyranny of Dawn
Please let me sleep
I beg the early rays of the sun
just five more minutes
to close my eyes
but dawn answers back
trumpets blaring
Wake up sleepyhead, wake!
I bring you a bright new day
and so, as if against my will
first one eye
and then the other
are pried open by soft morning light
Sighing, I grudgingly accept defeat
watching dew glistening
like diamonds on seas of green
early birds looking for earlier worms
wondering if worker bees
are happy being so busy
I think...

the meat locker
The Meat Locker
The largest ice freezer of free-range Texan
long-horns where mice wore fur to survive
broke down, the carcasses began rotting
thrown into the bay.
The day after, sharks came to the surface
throwing up, turning the water foamy
For anglers, it was a bonus they caught
big marlins and red snappers

Henchman of caffeine
The rouse is dynamic
Inhaling the vapour of musk
The husks bear no limits to the spectacular of liquid rebirth within
Invigorating the bones
Stimulating the eye
He swills the sable waters
lapping up the vigour of caffeine
the henchman romances his ebony gift
Pining over the imprint of such a creation
He’s stimulated—
The addicts gold
Affair of bold
A sip of clarity’s chiming
Inhaling the vapour of musk
The husks bear no limits to the spectacular of liquid rebirth within
Invigorating the bones
Stimulating the eye
He swills the sable waters
lapping up the vigour of caffeine
the henchman romances his ebony gift
Pining over the imprint of such a creation
He’s stimulated—
The addicts gold
Affair of bold
A sip of clarity’s chiming

Fancy That
dark elixir carefully brewed
a ritual when dawn unfold
to smell that and the roses
slowly dying on vases
the fragrance dance in the air
like belly dancers' tantalising gait
caressing the senses deeply
a lick a sip and everything's great
Coffee like dreams taking flight
carefully traversed on the morning light.

Barista Flow
Damn I need a vice
it’s gotta be more to life
than pouring espresso shots
over ice.
Busting my ass on bar,
while the strangers just stare,
Oat milk here, a little caramel drizzle there.
Fancy coffees for fancy prices.
Short,
Tall,
Grande,
Venti,
It’s nice to have that privilege with a side
of Fendi.
Designer bags, designer things
I’m tired of slanging coffees,
I want the finer things.
I’m just a barista that does poetry…
if I wasn’t handing you your coffee,
you wouldn’t notice me..

A blueberry bagel
Coupled with a cup of java
Make for the perfect
