Poem

Ode to Morning Coffee

Black heat rising in steam,
bitter prophet of dawn’s claim.
You burn my tongue awake,
shake sleep’s ash from my veins.
Small god in a white cup—
I drink you down like truth,
dark and necessary.

Ghairo Daniels Date: 3/27/2026 7:34:00 PM Lovely allegory to coffee, Kayla. I only read this gem now. I like how you’ve used black & white in poem. This is an effective line : “ You burn my tongue awake,”. Well written. Great Love your way., Ghairo.
