Coffee is sugar,

Coffee is tea,

Coffee is chocolate and carbs up in me.

Coffee is lovely.

Coffee is cheese.

Coffee is GABA, a protein I need.

Coffee is mindset,

Coffee is sane,

Coffee helps me keep “half” of a brain.

Coffee’s a placebo,

One that I use,

Coffee keeps me “stable” like roots.

Say what you mean.

Mean what you say.

Coffee helps me “get through the day.”

I do not know why,

I only know when,

Coffee helped teach detachment AGAIN.

The “signs” are all there,

If we know what to “see,”

Sometimes the signs are even in ME.

Say what you want.

Do what you say.

Coffee can help keep the meanness at bay.

Judge your own thoughts.

Work your own plan.

Be your own drummer and take your own “Stand.”

I’m not a rapper,… a preacher,… or saint,

Just “slightly” disturbed, and it’s all in my brain.

We are ALL just alike.

Even more than we “think.”

If you murder the vehicle, that’s when you sink.

If you don’t like the drink, then don’t take a sip.

Just whatever you do,

Don’t ask me to quit.

You can stand “here,”

And I will stand “there,”

But no WAY is “easier,” “better,” or “fair.”

It’s simply all relative.

Time’s just a “PLAN.”

We took it and boxed it and said: “That’s the END.”
