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

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.

THE COFFEE BAR
It's where I go
to find my flow.
The coffee bar
is where you are.
With forearms bare
you kind prepare
my day's request,
exchanging jest.
I hear the 'whoosh'
come like a flush
as you serve me
variety
of a flavour
I could savour.
Your tone of skin
is so matching
what's in my cup
when it's milked up.
to find my flow.

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..

Beware
Let me give it
To you straight
If you wish
to speak to me
As soon as I awake
You'll have to wait
For Heaven's sake
No one, not even
My precious pup
Will interact with me
Until I drink
My first cup of coffee
So, if you don't wish
To hear me moan
And let out a groan
You'd be wise
To hang up
That darn cell phone
And leave my
Cranky self alone
To you straight
If you wish
to speak to me
As soon as I awake
You'll have to wait
For Heaven's sake
No one, not even
My precious pup
Will interact with me
Until I drink
My first cup of coffee
So, if you don't wish
To hear me moan
And let out a groan
You'd be wise
To hang up
That darn cell phone
And leave my
Cranky self alone

Breakfast
A blueberry bagel
Coupled with a cup of java
Make for the perfect
Start to my day

Decoction
10/30
Decoction
Who became the authority on ancient beverages?!
Who’s to say – to contest, THAT
coffee is / was, not the SECRET of earlier times of
love of Goddesses & Gods?
An elixir SO energetically inviting exciting
writing about and
counteracting belief in the PURE
libation of the elder Beings
matured into modern day, today
as so DELIGHTFUL,
AND, so ADDICTIVE –
What were the the Ancient Ones thinking!!!!

Throat
unrestrained and greedy
I throw myself at you
not knowing where you come from
without asking you anything
unintentionally, like this, unintentionally...
I feel myself dissolving
like honey in your coffee
I feel numb and restless
I feel this way, I feel...
I start coughing nonstop
as if your saliva wouldn't let me
respond, breathe, resolve
not knowing what to say
not knowing, thus, not knowing.

Pour me another stimulant (with reading)
Mondays are
so
gloopy
Despite best intentions to
get
shit
done
moments glom together
like stale, fused ju-jubes
brain
moving
slowly
….

tick
tock
….
molasses
style
until big sticky chunks of time
have passed suddenly
without checkmarks on the to-do list
….
