should be

should be roasting,
instead of typing.
should be working on menu,
instead of daydreaming.
should be changing marque,
closing soon
never roasted
didn't work on menu
daydreamed about
dna from other planets
and who my farmer is.
still haven't changed marque.
what to say
10 letters
3 lines
ahhhhhhhhh!

ringing in my ears

closing my eyes
the cheshire cat
ate the midnight diamonds.
the customer now quiet,
oops I spoke to soon.
cookies in
coffee done
smells about
finding peace in my day
close my eyes
I see her smile
ate my words
there goes the cookie alarm.
here comes jim
making espresso

leaves falling

past the window
onto the ground,
blowing around.
a truck like a clown,
never a frown.
I lose my grace,
staring beauty in the face.
winter in my mind,
no love to find.
In my hell I have no voice,
sometimes I have no choice.
sleep evades my night,
would she make it right?
what paintings to start?
making life into art.
life passing,
no blessing.
work doesn't work.
