Indecisiveness

Poems

A scoop full of coffee grounds,

A spoon full of sugar.

Can have both?

In a cup of hot water?

Mix them and give me my favorite.

You're telling me I have to pick?

I can either have bitter or sweet,

but not bittersweet?

Indecisiveness settles in.

And I can't feel my legs.

What's coffee grounds

without sugar to help

where it lacks in flavor?

What's sugar

without coffee grounds

to add the needed caffine?

I love caffine.

I need caffine.

There is no hot beverage more desirable

than steamy coffee with sugar.

No tea or latte can ever compare.

This combination is life threatening;

it's so good!



Ok, so indecisiveness continues-

I need both to wake up everyday.

But indeed I must pick between them.

What the hell do you think I am?

An idiot?

I'll take the coffee grounds...

Strong and black.

Most people take it without sugar.

What the hell is coffee without

coffee grounds?
