Staring at my cup of coffee, I notice
the stains running down
on the side where I sip.
Every drip left behind is less
caffeine for my lacking brain
which so longingly craves liquid energy -
In such a way it begins
critically analyzing the drips left behind
searching for some deeper meaning, rather than just me
being a bit messy.
