Aromatic Blend is a fanciful little book of twenty four poems about
coffee; poems that are at times insightful, frequently nonsensical with an
ambient lightheartedness. Don Anawalt looks into a dark musty cup of Arabian
Blend and sees tiny manifestations of the life: "a fine friction and turbulence
dancing in the fluid dynamics of coffee's steaming mug." Sit down for
a moment, have a Cafe Latte, a Cappuccino, or simply the house blend, and
discover there is more to coffee than just coffee. Find the "Poetical Coffee
Machine" or "Mother's Percolator," or "The Coffee Moment." Take a break from
your day, have a cup, read a poem. It's right to slow down and take time for
yourself; to know that "a moment of freedom from Newton's linear equation is
good for the soul." And remember with coffee as with life: "Screw the lid on
too tightly, the essence never escapes." |
