Healthy Conversations

Life as active love 
evolves toward more polycultural communication,
across both species and time,
within Earth’s Solar EcoSystemic Universe.

While this conversation includes human natured communicators,
we suboptimize our ecological balance
if endo-human discourse monopolizes our lifetime learning dialogue.

A life...

The Job Interview

The HR person called me in… I was turning gray… Was he even twenty-one?
I wondered if the interview would go well, as he did fung shui the chairs around.
Offered a caramel expresso mocha late decaf,...

Sipping Coffee

“God within me is the enjoyer of the aroma

As also this dopamine boosting flavour I taste

I surrender all pleasures to the dweller of my heart

Breath by breath thus that my soul presence be chaste”

Coffee Shop V2

Prefece:
You're sitting alone at the bar of the coffee shop and you've got the usual.
black decaf latte, today's newspaper, and that pen that smears blue ink.
It’s the same every night, that's why you come back....

Dear Guest

At the sound of the gong you appear
to seek some welcome refreshment,
dear guests to be greeted right here 
with a cuppa is our sincere intent.

There's a flask of filter coffee 
and a pot of tea,...

Last Night's Edition

Comfortably curled up, after a tiring day,
I'm sipping my decaf, like I quite often do
While reading the evening news,
My after dinner ritual,
      like feeding the dog,

Eat, Drink and Be Wary

Ain't no wonder we're baffled about eatin' - ever'thing is taboo.
We're deluged by self-appointed gurus toutin' their points uv view.
Can't they desist and find somethin' more productive to do?
They can eat their tofu and water...

This Is a Riddle

>Some people who have me
Really love me true.
Although I am not too sure.
That's what they ought to do!

And then there is those that have me not.
And they would really love a lot.
Honest they would, I...

What I Accomplished Today

The bright sun chasing night awakes me with delight
Arising from my sleepy state is a terrible plight  

Dragging forth to brush my tangled pressed down gray hair
Eyes barely open, stumble forth needing java juice...

Observations In Starbucks

Standing in the
Starbucks line
I have ample time
to observe
the woman
beside me, her
lips and fingernails
painted bright red
like a billboard
she fancies herself
the main attraction
inadvertently
advertising her
desperate need
to be noticed

The tables dotted
with individuals
using their
computer screens
and newspapers
like barricades
they hide inside
fiercely protecting
themselves...

If I Were Your Love

If I were your love,
All of the loves that I experienced before you appeared
Would not compare to the love I'd gladly offer and give to you.
You'd be my pearl of great price; all others being...

Decaf Emotions

I remember when mornings meant coffee,
photographic caffeinated displays
Kind of silly really if you think about it,
but it meant so very much to me

I can still hear it dripping,
smell the aroma wafting through the office,
feel the...

What a beautiful breakfast
This hotel  embraces your stay
Everything you could wish for
To keep u going all day

The prunes I had were lovely
So juicy and fat
Now feeling a rumble in my stomach
Was I wise to eat...

Miss You - 3-12-18

Do I miss you
After all you were
Sugar sweet
On my teeth
Just your name was
L S D
Had me tripping till I’d fallen
I guess I fell in love
I guess I miss that
I guess I miss you
But maybe you’re...

Are These My Golden Years

Arthritis dictates much of what I do,
Relenting sometimes, though. Then I will be
Elated as I feel my strength renew,

Take walks pain-free and do, with energy,
Housework without completely wearing out.
Each week I see more wrinkles and...

Breakfast Time Through Two Lenses

As a young child
breakfast time was my favorite time of day
Mommy hovered over the flaming stove
as she sizzled a bundle of my favorite meals
tuna, corn beef, sardines , and steamed sausages
served with a side of...

White Noise with Bangs

She smiles like a mission statement—
all vision boards and decaf compassion.
Says she’s rooting for you,
then plants rumors like heirloom tomatoes:
carefully spaced, watered just enough
to grow wild in someone else’s yard.

You know the type.
Squeals I'd never

Another Kind of Virus

There's another virus going around.

Flustered by everything COVID-19;
I am grateful I still have a job,
but grumpy I have to drive there in the rain -
I need to get to the fast lane or I'll be...

What We Eat

The vegans eat their vegetables,
The carnivores their meat.
The gluten-haters stay away
From foods containing wheat.

The carbohydrate shunners
Won’t eat pasta, cake or bread
But can eat a pound of bacon,
Not the healthiest, instead.

Organic fruits and veggies,
Plus organic milk...

Can'T Decide If I Should Slap Myself Silly Or Have Another Cuppa Decaf

There are days like these when life patently doesn't come easy
like peas and carrots, tea and biscuits, moonshine & sun's resign,
more so resembling ill-assorted poked chocolates' wrongdoing of
dissemblance discombobulating conceivability mid hokey designed
disorderliness, inasmuch mute...

Arguing With Inanimate Objects

Arguing with inanimate objects
Can be very distressing
To them
My Roomba drove itself down the stairs
The Keurig switched to decaf

Alexa told me where to go
Siri filed for a restraining order
My iphone deleted the “find my phone” app

Who Would Have Thought

Who Would Have Thought
By Valerie D. Staton


The first time we met I was a bit scared
To be in a union unequally paired

You smoked cigarettes, I did not
You liked the cold weather, I liked it hot

Coffee Shop Girl

Arctic wind blows through my fibre
pinching me til it stings
I shovel my way through the glass door
as the bell above it tinkles

They all look up
at the centre of my moment
til the wave breaks

The Rescued Life

Smack me with your caffeine stick,
Hit me out of the park,
From the sleepy mire thick,
You kindle my life's spark.

A cuppa joe or just a cuppa,
Breakfast, lunch and even suppa,
Grind your beans into my brain,
Take away...
