Coffe-Break

Suspension.

by Laura A. Ferrabino

Strolling by the corner shop,
focused on your goal, non-stop.
Hear dishes clink in the bar's cheer,
Keep walking, pretend not to peer.
But then a halt in the human machine,
stops the daily routine.
You lift your gaze, take a step ahead,
you enter in, without any regrets.
The machine hisses, a delightful sound,
"Good morning, a coffee"...and here you are found.
