A Cup of Coffee

Alluring aroma

Calls us over
Uplifting bean
Pulverised to make us keen

Olfactory sense starts to excite
Firing up with delight

Caffeine or caffeine free
Oh what a pleasure to taste and savour it be
Frothy cappuccino or americano
From which do you choose
Either one
Ecstay exudes

"Americano"

filter-dripped
watered down
weak coffee

artificial

the mood 
steaming diluted
swings lower, unfilling;

the wanting
lusciously dark
hot to the tongue

more rapid 
complex in richness 
animated 

scalding and sharp

Expresso
piercing arrow 
shoots straight to the heart.



Candide Diderot. ‘25

Cup of Joe

- First Cup
Brew, Plunge, Percolate,
Morning ritual observed...
Elixir of life.

- Single-Shot
Caf, Half-Caf, De-Caf,
Espresso, mocha, latte...
Steamed milk, not too hot.

- Americano
Tall, Grande, Venti,
Served up with whipped cream on top...
Large drip coffee, please.

- Last Drop
Naked Baristas,
Delight drive-thru customers...
Don't forget to tip.

Premium Member Table For One

mellow just chilling
sitting back
listening to
coffeehouse tunes

sipping a tall americano
at a table for one
set by the window
in the far corner

winding down
doodling pen in hand
jotting rough lines
of a poem on a napkin

pulling it together
precious me time
hiding out where
i can lose myself
and not be found

Premium Member Drowned Out

That noise
The overwhelming noise
Mechanical impersonal

Drowning out
My inner voice
In a much soothing manner

I may be deaf when
I leave this roastery coffeehouse
But till then

I am thoroughly enjoying
The mental massage
By this robotic drone

Being in no rush to leave
Sipping my americano

Unsolicited

I
order
some coffee –
Americano –
wait with anticipation.
Superheated steam scalds the essence from the beans,
then rising from the cup, that rich fresh-brewed aroma.

I
savour
the vapours –
pure Arabica -
then notice in the saucer
something which I did not order : a biscuit,
yes, cellophane-wrapped an unsolicited biscuit,
the ubiquitous and unsolicited caramelised biscuit !

I
wonder
what’s it worth,
my unsolicited biscuit ?
I’ll send it back and get a refund !

Good Morning

My good mornings get better upon that first cup of morning brew
makes my sense of smell tingle in anticipation
as my appetite is whetted
for further stimulation
from the
bitter smacking bean

good mornings are  tolerable
with a cup of steaming Java
be it a latte, mocha Java, Americano or what have u
and I give homage to 
this seemingly innocuous bean
which contains a powerhouse of alertness and verve

Good morning  good morning indeed
it's going to be a good one
my spirit freed
