hot and black

some people
make a project
out of their
cup of coffee,
snapping sugars,
stirring,
pouring,
adding this
and that.
they sip and taste
after each
additional
sprinkle
of something
sweet. more
this, more
that. closing
their eyes,
trying
hard to get it
just right.
how jealous
they are of those
who leave
so quickly,
with just hot
and black.
