Line Gauthier Poet Free verse

Coffee Bar

I come for the ambiance
Curl up in the furthest corner
Quite content for life to pass me by
I like the pace

Mostly I like
That it doesn’t ask
I get involved
Block it all out

So I sit there
Incognito
Anonymous
Invisible

Cut the cord
Do my thing
It’s my second home
Where I recharge
