There's lots more I want to do to this so watch out for updates to it.
Lovers on a bench
We are gathered at the end
of the coffee shop that gets the most light
away from the fridge. We transfix our gaze
at pictures on the free WiFi
internet and smile at static smiling faces
of people we once knew
or feast our eyes on magazines
in primary colours selling brand new
mobile phones. We chat to friends
about mutual friends and breastfeeding
habits, clasping frantic air to ourselves,
or work our tongues around
caramel waffles and drink coffee while it's still
too hot to taste. We sound
out ideas on our phone and make
our conversations match our face
or tap our feet to jazz at just too fast a pace.
The windswept lovers sit on a bench away
outside sharing one large sweet latte.
