Trying To Relax
by alexrambler
Foamed milk at the top please
I sat down and looked out toward the street
The door opened and I felt a breeze
Coming in as a couple sat down to eat
Damned coffee too hot to drink
Started to ponder if this place ever gets busy
For me it’s a setting where I can think
And sit for a while without feeling dizzy
Oh my goodness that sure tasted fine
Opened a newspaper that I bought earlier
Read all the way through nothing but lies
What sells today is just dirtier and dirtier
We sure live in strange times today
Threw away those false words onto another table
It’s about how loud you can be not what you have to say
I’m just trying to avoid all of their poorly written fables
No thanks I’m actually fine my friend
Finished up the coffee as quick as possible
The place is empty now and I do intend
To once more face the wind and all of lifes obstacles
