Click hereBlack Water swirls
sweetened by existence
spell casting brew
energizing
Hovered over and cupped hands around
black water's warming strands
slivers on streams
steaming
A potion for the awakening
a serum for the craver
Texas mud, Java's black water
coffee
But I can rise above that all important omission (just don’t forget to mention it as TURKISH coffee in the Middle East; North Africa and the Caucuses though…). The reason? You got some of the main ingredients right, like the spell and the sweetness and the cupped hands - especially the spell. That spell effect worked particularly well with the nice insertion of the single words in-between the stanzas: “energizing:… “steaming”… “coffee”, like a portion of a whispered spell. All that is left now is to taste the coffee!

One of those well-done writes
That with one word makes you
Want to read it again;
With that subsequent read, so stimulating.
