Although sugar-mixed or cream-stirred<\/p>\n
It will always be black for me<\/p>\n
As black as a moonbeams-less sky.<\/p>\n
Serve it hot, cold, or in-between<\/p>\n
It will always be black, particularly mine<\/p>\n
Black as the darkness of the night<\/p>\n
Sans stars and the milky way.<\/p>\n
No matter how you stir it<\/p>\n
And make an eddy<\/p>\n
It’s still black, a whirlpool-black<\/p>\n
Like a muddied, stagnant canal.<\/p>\n
In a mug, or in a cup,<\/p>\n
Brewed, or instant, or 2 in a 1<\/p>\n
It’s black<\/p>\n
Similar to a beclouded sky, with a brewing storm.<\/p>\n
In a sip, in a gulp<\/p>\n
Whether it’s bittersweet or honeyed or nectar-ed<\/p>\n
Or bitter-creamed or milky<\/p>\n
It will always be black<\/p>\n
Such as a darken tunnel with no sight<\/p>\n
of a light at the end.<\/p>\n
It will always be black<\/p>\n
Ergo, make mine a black, sweet-black<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
