Ladies on Water Street, with coffee grounds under your fingernails, You are the reason that I leave my bed before Ten In the morning.
Some days I want to ask if you’ve ever read Marquez but I am far too shy and you are far too beautiful and I think too much and you are probably Too Straight.
But while you are pouring that espresso: Allow me (just this once) To wade only ankle- deep.
Allow me (forgive me), I know its marginalization; You are a human and a person, But I must give way to temptation: let me engage in some Innocent objectification (an oxymoron, I'm aware), as I sip an Americano through dumb lips and watch the little movements of your hips.
not anything super, just an ode to coffee shop girls.
