calumet ave. blues

the street, the river.
the people, chopped liver.
gas, trucks, oil, exhaust,
i think this ole river,
will make me get lost.
the boat is stable.
this ole river just ain't
this ole river just ain't
this ole river just ain't
able........

some reasons

Culture Cafe is better than Starf*cks
1. our customers are coffee literate,
they know thier coffee..
2. we use "fresh roasted" coffee, roasted on location.
not old bitter stuff shipped in from some factory.
3. we roast coffee to specific origin profiles.
we don't "over roast", (bastardize) our coffee.
4. we know how to draw espresso.
they leave it to automation.
5. you won't find pretencious ass-holes here.
we "won't" kiss their ass.
6. we use unbleached filters.
they don't care.
7. our house coffee is made with fair trade beans.
they don't care.
8. to be continued.............

the scene

some nyc, panosh!!
new selections of coffee in
coming weeks, el salvador bourbon,
some grand columbian.
Some life to old favorites.
Try some alvacado, on that.
truckin, metro style
Saw myself in windows.
Saw all of you.
The sidewalks bustle with those
you know, and don't, but will.
Ideas for me, like raindrops in
the sunshine.
Old and new, there they are,
hitting you in the face.

the big sweet apple!
