Kape-Writer
For Marie Vic
.
Not without the demitasse, she writes
The focus on which reverie and solitude unites
For in it inspiration appears in a form of pensive umber
From which she extracts the essence with pen and paper
And panics when she sees the cup empty
What once was there was lost too quickly
She refills
Re-feels
Pours, exhales, and scribes
Consumes, sighs, and writes
The succession of having and losing
The solidarity of coffee and writing

Kendi! How timely of you to drop by here! I was thinking of you this morning… miss your company - and the coffee that comes along with it. Enkyu Kendz… =)
By the way, do you know anyone in CDO? My uncle was able to purchase a moka pot cheaply from Gaisano. It’s not Bialetti but it’ll do daw.

Yey!!! So happy with the news - both of Rian visiting and the Bialetti.
Wishing you all the good times brought about by that little weapon of mass addiction. haha ;-)

yes mir, hopefully he gets to move here early next month so that we won’t be missing each other a lot and would have time to share espresso and make artworks and poems as nice as this one while taking sips of it. :)

I sincerely hope for the very same things… that way, the poems will be way sweeter. ;-)

i LOVE IT mir!!! i don’t believe any other writer can do justice to coffee, writing - and the kape-writing life, as you obviously did here! =)
“The succession of having and losing”
SIGH. =)

Anonymous but undeniably THE real Kape-Writer. Now that I have your permission, with a simple “for Marie Vic”, I’ll reveal the identity of a better writer to whom this little rhyme is ascribed. =)
