The second of my collections of poems written for "Express It In Eight."
As usual these days, I choose blog format because it offers more space for the work.

Tearoom

Certainly ma’am - coming right up -
whatever you want will be in your cup;
the chef is a master of magical arts,
ever he knows the desire of your heart.

And if you require a mystical brew,
he’ll add just the thing to satisfy you;
but remember the price, that is what’s real,
plain truth being always part of the deal.

Prompt: “I don’t want realism. I want magic.” - Blanche DuBois.
