A Coffee Bar With Orange Paint

A coffee bar with orange paint -- Brown tables on a tiled, grey floor -- Soft light within blown glass above -- A neon sign hangs by the door. I come here sometimes just to write. A coffee bar with orange paint To some would be apalling; but I do not see it as a taint. Tonight an artist's work is hung Upon those walls in bold display; A coffee bar with orange paint Allows her dreams to have their say. I like the color in these walls -- A brazen hue, not pale or quaint; And in this place I weave my words -- A coffee bar with orange paint.
