Coffee Poetry Poem by YURI DURAAN
Coffee Poetry
Let us speak words that are
not too challenging...
not too emotive
easy on the tongue
and ably swallowed
with a morning cup of coffee
Do not shout, dear
Do not raise your voice...
Stay behind your mask of
half-sleep
half-words
low whispers
Let us have our coffee
Let us pour the sugar and
the milk just so...
without spilling a
single drop
or grain of emotion.
Let us have our coffee without spilling a grain of emotion - emotion gets in the way of objectivity, does it, really? Or, maybe, it gives us pain, renews old pains, memories we don't want to recall, and yet, we love the company of this person. This happens. It is painful, though; or is it?
It can be a feeling of intimate life. It can be a statement of poetics, in this case we could have the 'Coffee Poets'. In the previous one, there would be simply somebody who is taking a cup of coffee. The atmosphere is sober, the emotions are expressed without exaggeration. As well as one takes his cup of coffee in the morning, at the beginning of a new day in which has to be a good wide-awake, anyway.
Clever girl you are dear nice light and easy, two sugars please 10 Chris

A fine poem, Yuri. I realised just now after posting a poem of the same title, that you've posted one over five years back. Your welcome to read my version.
