My life
Laid up
Incubated
In a brown paper cup
Dark Beginnings
Stirred and Roasted
Add Cream
Only a splash
As not to drown out the dark
But only to lighten the bitter
Ahhh just right
Not to dark
And not to light
Wish this was life
Recipe for sight
And enlightenment
Yet it is merely a cold cup
Full of rough grounds and warm milk
My life laid up in a cup
In the trash
My life
Laid up
Incubated
In a brown paper cup
Dark Beginnings
Stirred and Roasted
Add Cream
Only a splash
As not to drown out the dark
But only to lighten the bitter
Ahhh just right
Not to dark
And not to light
Wish this was life
Recipe for sight
And enlightenment
Yet it is merely a cold cup
Full of rough grounds and warm milk
My life laid up in a cup
In the trash
