SHE DRINKS COFFEE

For S.

cradling hot coffee

one hand cupping coffee cup

other stroking Styrofoam side

 

tentatively tasting with lips touching

slowly, softly sucking

hot hot coffee cup handled carefully

she sips and strokes, gently

cupping and supping by sipping

 

blowing barely, breathing only,

holding higher lifting, trembling lips

drawing dat scorching drink slowly

and humming, it’s hot, hmm…

 

lets rest cup carefully cooling

calmly watching creamy cup of coffee…

 

or

 

is

 

it

 

chocolate…?
