Java Jonesing Blues

Quitting coffee and should it kill me
Want to say that it's been fun

Sidled up to this specific teat
Not long after my first weaning done

My body trying to clue me in
As I clung to my drug of choice

No longer willing to  continue
In stifling my tired kidney's voice

Just read it slows down the flow of lymph
to a toddling terrapin crawl 

Immunities highway like that of L.A.'s
Cannot abide it you all

My plan to reduce to a cup a day
Followed by a day after another

It's warmth will be missed the aroma as well
As a weanling ripped from its mother (sob)


Truthfully not looking forward to
Shifting to water and herbal teas

Saying goodbye to my old friend caffeine
Long considered the hairy bee's knees
