An Interested Poem for Today

I found an interesting poem today from a blog called Factory Town. He calls it How To Drink Espresso. Here it is... To drink espresso you have to have espresso. First you go to a place that serves it. You walk in and if they have a counter you ask for a double espresso. You can do this thing. Espresso is finely ground dark roasted coffee that very hot water is forced thru into a little porcelain cup. There are little brown bubbles on top called crema. If the kid there asks you if you know what an espresso is say yes. Some of these places want you to buy something else. They want to sell you something with milk in it. This milk could be from a cow or maybe from a bean but do not fall for this. Espresso does not want the milk in it. Forget it. Promise me this. Be firm. If the kid says expresso politely tell him that there is no "x" in espresso. Now if they serve your espresso in a plastic or paper cup, give it back and tell them that you want it in a little porcelain cup like it wants to be. Otherwise it will not taste right. If there is no crema give it back and ask them where the crema is. No go sit down and drink. Sip it. Take some time. Savor the moment. Think about the possibilites. Listen to the other guys. Put your two cents in. Get out of there. Go back on the street. Get something done. ...all work is property of author at above link... ...be bold Tagged: cafe evoke, coffee catering, coffee, espresso, tea, bozeman, montana, poetry The Global Exchange Fair Trade Store is your Online Source for Socially Conscious Gifts
