Replying to a comment on:
Coffee Incorrectly (Free verse) by gregsamsa222
you ordered "coffee incorrectly"
on Amsterdam Avenue
and the waitress grimaced
"years of experience" I explained to you
as she shuffled away, her soft white
shoes sliding almost erotically against
the blue and grey linoleum floor
like a recurring theme through the Civil War
"It isn't often that she receives permission
to serve an item incorrectly"
We conversed, lightly and aimlessly,
about the nature of coffee incorrectly,
the dark black overpowered by the milky whiteness
and how, since you ordered it to be as it was,
could it truly be called coffee incorrectly
