Too Early for Coffee
Good,
Cup, coffee
Takes great time.
Everyone will have least
One experience how make coffee.
Some aspects making cup must pinpoint
Many more clearly visible no-no’s to start off.
Every obviously wrong decision made: what not do.
Do not try make cup coffee three-quarters asleep.
Brain enough time focusing while half asleep leaves perfect set-up.
Retrieve cup, never hurts double-check position placed cup.
Cup's bottom looks mightily familiar compared hollow opening.
Successfully completed, pour coffee cup, stir any creamers.
Wisest piece advice, add any sweetener,
Quadruple-check choice selection. May
Just end up putting
Far more than
Colossal amounts
Salt.
