Because sometimes you need a little nonsense.
Coffee.
Warm.
Inviting.
Comforting.
A wonderful part
of my day.
Speaking of wonderful,
did you know
octopuses have three hearts?
That seems excessive.
One heart is enough
to cause problems.
Three feels like showing off.
The heart, of course,
is a symbol of love.
Which brings us
to Valentine's Day.
Which is in February.
February is a strange month.
Short.
Suspicious.
Occasionally cold.
In Texas,
it's one of the few months
that remembers
winter exists.
Winter weather
makes me want
something warm.
Something comforting.
Something inviting.
Something that smells good.
I should make coffee.
Wait.
Wasn't this
a poem about coffee?
