Daily Addictions
Standing in line to purchase a hot toffee coffee,
I am embraced by Congo’s drumming from above.
Upon placing my order,
I notice how many others,
stand in the long line,
patiently
to place their own order
of high priced
cup of cappuccino,
Chi with milk,
Café mocha;
French vanilla
Sounds of coffee pots cling
adding a charm to the Congo’s rhythmic pound
Cappuccino machines adds to the blend,
while musical notes bounce off the sunshine walls.
A cloud of aroma fills the packed air,
soothing those waiting
“Toffee coffee”, the brilliant caffeine maker yells,
bringing me to wrap my cool hands around the sleeved cup,
sending my tongue into a frenzy-
awakening
