Good to the Last Drop
Swirling wisps
Of smoke and ash,
Evidence of my fury,
Float high in cerulean sky.
High above the evergreens,
And then vanish
Into the crisp morning air,
In but a mere sliver
Of measured time,
To chase your spirit,
As I stare into the fire.
Transfixed.
Thinking of you,
And what I've done.
Drinking coffee.
Black, bitter, and strong.
As perfect as my hate.

Morning without you.
There is no sugar can unbitter this final cup.
