a weird little cup of a frenchman’s coffee i was served

by Fred Aiken

a frenchman served me a cup of coffee
while vaping and puffing out watermelon-raspberry scented smoke
in little shapes that seemed like they were pretty impressive,
but i also see shapes in clouds,
so it could be all the work of the vapor, i don’t know,
the jury, or in this case, the frenchman
is still out
