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
