Denizens of a coffee shop
placate their loneliness with
coffee and glances, little
cakes and imagination
The middle-aged brunette quietly watching
the tall blond man gazing through his glasses at
the shapely mother of three who squeezes
the knee of the balding man secretly assessing
the Barbizon redhead just entering with
the trench-coated chap who smiles extra warmly to
the cute barista whose crush on
the three-piece-suited regular in
the corner goes unnoticed as he emails
his wife suddenly distracted by the
the Latin woman whose eye has fallen upon
the Aussie man spying over his book at
the complete stranger tapping on
his phone in the chair across from him
who comes regularly because of
the woman at the long table studying
her poetry book who can't stop glancing at
the middle-aged brunette quietly watching the
Denizens of a coffee shop
placating their loneliness with
coffee and glances, and dreams
that someone might just look back
