"The time to relax is when you don't have time for it." (--Sidney Harris)

Undecided Coffee Lover

Cappuccino and cafe latte vie
for my attention;
which one shall I drink?
If cream be hazelnut, pass latte by.
Crème de banana?
Drain that down the sink!
Organic brews are best by far, they sing
without chemical chorus,
and yet
they grind well.
South American or island beans bring
aromas, captivating songs for baristas.
I crave cacao, perhaps demitasse,
or espresso, maybe two
hot shots of Brazil?
I can't decide these things, I think I'll pass.
But wait! Oh, coffee is a bitter pill.
" What will you have today?" (I'm next in line!)
"Just the house brand, please, and
no cream."
