While cleaning out old emails, I came across a poem I wrote back in the dark days of temping, circa 2002:
Coffee #1
Eyelids weak, but coffee's strong
This afternoon drags on too long
Cup o' coffee, cream and sugar
Only thing that rhymes is "booger"
Contents Hot! And yes indeed.
Cup o' coffee gives me speed.
Files filed, letters written,
By the Caffeine Bug am bitten.
By the Caffeine Bug am bitten.
[That last phrase "am bitten" reminds me of the Dutch word "aanbidden" which means "adore." And I do adore coffee. Go figure.]
