The Cylindrical Fathomless Maw

 Oh,

messenger of liquid:

smuggler of sweetened satisfaction.

You look so unopposing

in my coffee cup

I could get lost in the twirl.

Some like to chew on you,

but me,

I like your torture,

slow.

I like to stick you into a 

boiling cup of caffeine

and watch you crack under its pressure.


Oh,

straw.

Your accessibility

is a fathomless maw.

When you cut off my supply,

I withdraw

until my mind is raw.
