Cup of Coffee
by Viki Oak (bio after poem)
Visual
Thick
Oleo
Taste
Glass coffee cup clear
Like cream rises to the top
Half and half a line of demarcation
Brown chalk opaque
Murky soap bubble foam
Crowned jubilant with zest
Nutmeg steam faint vapor
Tinge of orange blossom
And chocolate: autumn palette
Fuzzy air tickles the tongue
It's quick gone!
Sip it in
Followed close and hot
by sweet madarin cocoa plunge drop
