An Untitled Poem Written On The "You, Starbucks And Nutrition" Pamphlet. Today.

Unsettled
Empty - a half-drunk decaf latte...
Futile from the start.
No foam.

Energy wanes
Spirit lacks to soar and
cupfulls of rain drench
the wetness of (my)
existence.

Calm quiets me
but roars in the caverns
of my ears.

Soundless.

Yet strangely,
It is all
I hear.

You need to grow a goatee and wear a beret when you recite this poem

Okay, I'm a guy. You know what guys are like. And when you mention the "wetness of (your) existence", well, despite the rest of your poem, "strangely, it is all I hear."

[And, obviously, this is someone else who stole lbck's identity just for this single comment on your posting.]
