Gathering Stages
Glass door opens
Bell sounds
Ambient music
Register rounds
Sit down
Lean back
And
Jack in
Enjoy
The caffeine
A burn
Paint peeling
Energized
Revived
To go
Again
Savor
Your energy
Deathwish
Ordered blend
Listen to rhyme
Be serenaded
By singers behind
The microphone
Inhale
Imbibe
Drink up
And revolt
Whispering scents
Simmering sets of
Underground coffeehouses
Jauntily percolating
At this
Place
Where revolution
Is awaiting
