coffee

i choose coffee
over love.
why not?
my heart already 
ripped dripping
from my chest
that night,
that night of 
a thousand knives.

i choose coffee 
& make it strong. 
make it a liquid
to drip pitch
down my throat. 
make it in shots 
& give me
the bullets 
to load.

i choose coffee, 
because if it's 
hard to sleep
it's hard to dream. 

i choose coffee.
over water, over tea
over land, over sea
over anything else
you want to serve.
