THE COFFEE IS COLD

Linda -I'm not sure if this was where you were going -but another stanza could erase the doubt if you like the suggestion. You have here a metaphor of life. We start out warm robust and full of flavor and end up cold and biter to one extent or another.

an interesting and fun contemplation
lol – I think they do go together – cold coffee and depression - or at least it becomes a hindrance to creative activity
did you know the smell of coffee is supposed to be what is good for us, not the drinking
I adore the smell – I take huge whiffs every morning like a snort junkie lol

a couple of tiny nits - imho I stress
there are a lot of ‘I’s in the first two stanzas…
also a lot of 'coffee's throughout

and
‘Poetry or prose, rambling or anger?
Since I am not prone to anger’
'anger' repeated very close here – perhaps you could use another word for one ?

and typo?
‘feets in my mind’ (feats)

I like the internal rhyme in
‘Depression stops the creative flow, you know’
and I really love the final line -
‘Maybe I'll warm up the coffee’

thanks for sharing

On your other submission Jim left a fix for you but I
couldn't find it this morning, it seems to be gone ... but
I believe the fix was a simple one, update your browser,
I believe he said he had the same problem with Internet
Explorer, try updating whatever browser you are using, and
if that doesn't work, try another one, Firefox, Safari and
Chrome are free to download.

I scanned the comments and did not see it.

James Thurber wrote about the delightful Walter Mitty not Middy. Certainly an easy error to make since most pronounce it Middy.

Thank you for bring ole Walter to mind. I loved him as a kid and still do.

great edit
- especially the move to rhyme in
'my cup of stimulate
no longer able to comtemplate
...I think I will heat up my brew
and rethink this write through'

and i do like it better without the amish reference...
