My Better Half



morning crisis lies ahead when
there is no coffee made;
I stand firm in this conviction.
so, much so that coffee
is made the night before
and in a carafe placed...
next day morning arrives
and in a cup is poured,
place in a microwave
heated for a minute or two;
viola...  there it is...
my warm coffee smell
soon to be tasted
and crisis is averted...
until my better half points out
it took just as long to reheat
as it took to make now
that pods are on the scene.
back in crisis mood I go
trying to decide direction...
wondering why I ever
wanted a better half.
