A Brew Too Strong

Granulated beans a society brews,

a solvent crutch for lame, mute mornings, 

their porcelain cups alone fully-knowing

of what is beyond its bitter bite.

With an acquired taste, admittedly,

a hidden dynamic beyond one sip, 

it is only those who most need it

that awaken to its extent of piquancy.

With many a form for insipid peoples

who don't dare enjoy without conditions,

its one true form is quickly usurped.

Sitting here, at ends with a brew far too strong,

I cannot help but relate.
