Notes About The Poem

Whats the Shtick With Coffee

What’s the shtick with coffee?
Why can my love, grow so cold, so fast?
Before microwaves, we’d keep to a tiny cup at a time
with no creamer. A little bit of the grind to warm us up-
a love so strong, kept on the fire. Cool beans*

The cool bean has become a plethora of flavors now, hope it's still "god to the last drop" :)
