For a little while
To catch a nicotine breath
To exchange a smile
And to wet ones lips
On chipped mugs
Hiss spit of coffee machine
Warble of radio and the murmur
Of hushed conversation.
Solo acts stare out windows or
Into their tea cup mirrors
First dates wait
Sitting in corners until their
Time's up.

LeBrozabout 17 years agoAn excellent spot to observe all the goings on of humanity on the run; pausing for a moment to enjoy a bit of life's more delicious rewards.
