no cream, no sugar
can dull the bitterness of this drink
tea set to steep too long
drawing from the leaves
this is my cup
I have to swallow
for concern that it should somehow overflow
to stain the saucer
like a bloodlust
with that dark liquid I so fear
I dare not chose
to let it linger
what lady would I be to leave a mess?
