the perfect cup of coffee

the perfect cup of coffee

if it does exist must be ground,

brewed with the right equipment,

under the right temperature.

its taste must communicate

to all the senses and should be

of faultless color and opaqueness,

of pleasureable and boundless flavors,

and of an aroma of the precise intensity.

many people, regardless of time and place,

come in search of that perfect cup.

but beyond solely and soulfully brooding on its art,

the perfect cup of coffee binds people altogether.
