Poem: Coffee Pot

Always utilized

Picked up, put down

Burping, steaming, pouring

Hard at work making more.

Finally a break from being pushed around!

Back at it going from one colleague to another.

Sit down to do my job crying brown caffeinated tears.

Again another demanding interruption

Passed from one to another.

Back at work making more

The cycle never ends.
