.

down down down in the bottom of my mug
down in the daunting dark depths of my mug
is a place unknown underneath this sea
that hides many mysterious things from me
so i drink to reach the bottom
drink to reach beneath
sipping and lapping at the wealth of caffeine
only to find the hard surface behind it; empty
and the treasure I missed was the treasure I sipped
and it had slipped down inside of me
