cafe philosophy

Marx
Nietzsche
Sartre
Foucault

sitting jabbering away at the corner table
a sight so
trendy spendy, so
idea
as frothy latte
so pop goes
the weasel

and don’t give me your
ill-conceived ivory-tower bullshit
before these guys
have had their second espresso
the world will have changed

sorry Heraclitus, but the world
will will stepping into these ideas
forever
footnote to Plato? that
was just paddling around

steamy existence before vapid essence
you can just
imagine how the Greeks would
have handled that idea

consciousness boiling away
in the background

there is being
then there is nothingness
then there is the smell of
freshly-
ground coffee

sit down, take in
that wonderful aroma
see what the Universe has determined what
can be said, equally now
what must unfold
