Liquid Adrenaline

Liquid adrenaline

Black and hot

Steaming like a freight train

Running the gauntlet thrown before it

Breaking through

At once there is clarity

Dawn’s fog is lifted revealing the beauty of day

Sights, the smell opens like an obsidian rose

Delightful and powerful

Bold and aromatic

Temporary, yet easily repeatable

In bountiful varieties

Mine–deep, dark and strong

Undiluted by flavors

Coffee–crack in my cup

    Sitting with my first mug of java to kick start the day. ‘coffee – crack in a cup’ yes it sure is an addiction as hard to break as any other

    Nice take on the prompt Dom

      Thank you Jem, I do love a good cup of coffee to start the day. :)

    A very true description. Some people are terrible without coffee, which is kind of funny.

      I use to be that way, but now I like one cup in the morning and I’m fine. It has to be a good coffee though, preferably a strong dark roast which I drink black.

        I never got into coffee. Soda was my hit, which I’ve been steadily kicking.

        I’ve replaced one cup of morning coffee with a Diet Coke, but I really need to stop doing that. :)
