rush hour: eulogy in espresso

Jul 10, 2008 01:11

watch
as the cold causes the coffee to condense
but not before the caffeine short-circuits
your system:

a silent storm raging in a cup,
bottled-up emotions disguised as foam kissing the mouth.

drink up, crush the cup, and move on-

(same time tomorrow?)

here is your sandwich, to go.
