The Drop-In

The drip drops in the coffee pot

Knock, knock

Foot steps shuffle across the floor.

“Hey, how you doing?”

“Can I get a set-up?”

Click of the pen runs smooth across the paper.

The smell of warm piss

With

New York City streets

Fills the room

As the keys jingle at the door.

The coffee is bitter

The tea is sweet

The oatmeal is stale

Ravioli is a luxury.

Don’t touch them

Don’t touch me

Just make it home.
