Last Poems from the Coffee Cafe three poems

1

Live on T.V. [The Rating War

Ratings went up last week, the fat, rich T.V. station manager said.

Due to what coverage? asked my wife.

It was a battle in Iraq (or was it Afghanistan?)

Im not sure but the enemy just killed one-hundred U.S. Marines: Blacks Jews Spanish Poor Whites!

The analysis will now repeat the scenes (verbally) on the radio cash in, while they can!...

Pale-Faced

It took a while, but the while was willing to wait; pale-faced one that never saw lightness, lightness being something you give-off, radiate, and receive; but it never comes from a pale face,

either way. This maybe hard to believe, but for some it takes a lifetime to conceive.

Bitter Patience [At the Bookstore Caf

When the budget came to mind and her friend discussed it out loud with hershe delivered the verdict (after two-hours of hot clashes) a cool decision prevailed

there are points to this high silence prier to her verdict (her friend tripping over her tongue, a cracking of her voice,

somewhat; the clock ticking) her friend now says (clears her throat, holds herself ready) says: Guilty!

that is life.

Not much leftover; says the bewildered. She forgets a bill of $34.00. (Woops, less now.)

Speaking in a soft voice, mingled with raw reality, she is spending more than she is acquiring (easy to do I say in my mind); she sees the circumstance, says,: I got enough for some white rice. They both get up from their chairs, leave the table, books here and there, Bye, they say with a smile (each); leave with bitter patience.
