cups
mugs &
coffee spoons
placid plastic
translucent glass
& stoneware
inhabited by
nymphs with
mid level concerns
like waste management
& cozy kitchen crannies
furry nymphs a hundred
shades of brown &
green dancing in
short delicate spirals
wishing the charm
would wear off
the golden finish chip
or tarnish & the
metal liquefy
into a thousand tiny ships sailing
due east watching
naval fleets pierced
by hardened shredded cheddar
& green grape seeds
the captain lost in a stare
thinking what the hell's the difference
between a cup & mug anyway
calling for the deck hands'
wanting to forget his post
to lose himself inside a large
citrus scented soap bubble
to be surrounded by
ethereal oscillating
pastels of
yellow
pink
& blue
