COFFEE
Drugged and bouncing with the beans
City life with all its scenes
Screaming as life passes by
Hoping it will satisfy
Up at dawn and down the hatch
Midday break and more to match
As the evening’s sure to follow
So will be another swallow
Fill our heads with quaint distractions
Join a party or its factions
Debates in search of sanity
But who admits the vanity?
Drawn along by current fads
Strutting proudly like the adds
Cooler than the neighbours cat
Self absorbed with padded fat
Forgotten is our heartbeats source
Mini gods we think of course
Till that dreaded day arrives
With no one there to brush the flies
Cold and cramped, devoid of life
Now we’ve beat the daily strife
No more waking to be chided
Hope or void has been decided
Drugged and bouncing with the beans
City life with all its scenes
Screaming as life passes by
Hoping it will satisfy
Up at dawn and down the hatch
Midday break and more to match
As the evening’s sure to follow
So will be another swallow
Fill our heads with quaint distractions
Join a party or its factions
Debates in search of sanity
But who admits the vanity?
Drawn along by current fads
Strutting proudly like the adds
Cooler than the neighbours cat
Self absorbed with padded fat
Forgotten is our heartbeats source

With no one there to brush the flies
Cold and cramped, devoid of life
Now we’ve beat the daily strife
