chocolate covered coffee bean; time to blow the ceiling …
written by: Rania M M Watts
@CCInkQuills
my first year
of secondary school
i met a neurotic
individual
who was completely
obsessed with chocolate
covered coffee beans
three at a time
— throughout a stressful
exam session
at that point
i still had no idea
what coffee tasted
like — the aroma
itself smelled
pungent — i grew
up in a house
where turkish
coffee was taken
every afternoon
with an immense
plate of delectable
pastries.
the first time,
i ever had a cup
of double double coffee
was on my 17th
birthday
at first impression
i thought i would
have to bleach
my palate
to remove
that flavour
from inside my
mouth
when i turned
18 — i gave cappuccino
a chance — still felt
the same way
as the first time around
— although the foam
tasted delicious
the last time, i gave
this hot beverage
a try — in desperation
of caffeine after
a sleepless night
of pending graduation
stress
needless to say
i nearly blew off the ceiling
of my community class
in college and almost
got kicked out — in part
because the coffee
had awoken a hyper sleeping
dragon who wanted
nothing more than
a cold bottle
of mountain dew.
I dabble in myriad of Art mediums, however am most at home with a: pen, crayon, eyeliner, quill and any type of parchment. Always deemed a freak of nature because of my outlooks and perceptions, I've allowed my imagination to dominate my core since the age of 13 when I told my Grade 8 teacher Mr. Natale, I wanted to flee to Europe with a typewriter and create in fields of long grass... Ever since, I've been a Master Imaginarium & Oubliette Architect, there is NOTHING I can't write about!
Cement Covered Ink Quills is my brain-child blog where I relish focusing on the premise of 'The Verity of Humanity' via various Art Mediums.
