"Sugar and cream?"
"Yes, please" I reply to myself.
Wall paper, space heater, small round table.
There's a lot you can notice
When you're sitting by yourself
I wear a large yellow hat
so I blend in with the sun
Hoping it'll hide that I have no company
See, I don't mind being alone
As long as no one else notices

In poetry class, I was asked to write a poem to go along with a picture. A woman sitting alone in a coffee shop with a yellow hat.
