Best Caffeine Poems

He works like a well-oiled machine
But only when filled with caffeine
No power within

The caffeine is just a smoke screen
He won’t even stop for cuisine
So he’s string-bean thin

Heartbeat fast
Nerves so high
Senses tense
Mind trembling
Darkness surrounded
I’m turning 
From side to side

Blood veins jumping
Thoughts in chaos
Brain running
Stars falling
I’m still turning
From side to side

Time is still
Clocks have turned
Against me 
And my mind 
Outsmarting time
I’m turning
From side to side

Eyelids falling
Heartbeat fast
Nerves so high
Mind is tense
I’m still turning...

The day is long
My attention's short
I've no energy to cavort

Business isn't done
I'm ready to quit
Time feels like a bottomless pit

I'm physically here
Mind - absentee
I shouldn't have drank the caffeine-free...

~Caffeine Blues~

I look at the clock and it is late
Time to wake up and start new day
Ticktock ticktock hear the clock
Try to keep eyes open
But can not do it
Need that coffee
Very bad to
Get up
Now

A tribute to the amphetamine of day
Caffeine in all its glorious forms
It’s legal it’s potent
Nobody hounds you
Scrutinizing your intake
Be it social or on your own time
Beyond espresso and the americano
My ultimate favorite being
Chocolate covered coffee beans
I can’t get enough
I love the jolt they give
Throughout the...

I've much to be grateful for
mostly it would be the printing press
millions of books came from it
reading a book needs no change of dress

You just pick up one of your choice
sit down with a cup of coffee
this is bliss, reading and learning
many a word teaches...

Three-hundred milligrams
Approximately one-hundredth of a fluid ounce
Three-hundred milligrams of water a day, I’d die
Three-hundred milligrams of caffeine after three
I find myself staying up all night
Thinking of you.
What else is there to think of?

How something measured in milligrams 
Could have such an effect on my state
Causing...
