In A Cafe Poem by Saweini Laloo

In A Cafe

Rating: 5.0


What did he do then
As he sat alone in a Cafe room
Monochrome scenes of black and white
Waiting
The clock ticking
No digital screen in his hand
To sink into
Perhaps a newspaper
Perhaps taking off where he left
The pages of that book
Perhaps catching the flickering spark
Of a woman's eye
In the booth nearby
