And UD’s little beachstone collection. Breakfast on the balcony – from the iconic Papillon! – as a thunderstorm readies itself.
Sun floods the room at six
Two steps to the balcony to watch
Tai chi social media bagpipe cigar
Distant gaze usual metaphysical confusion
Boardwalk stroll for latte and scone
Superhearty good mornings from fellow oldies
Translation: GRATEFUL LIKE HELL I'M HERE
Here meaning the world rather than
Whatever's behind the metaphysical curtain
Latte machine broken so cafe person
Climbs almost to the top of it while cafe people
On the ground make inadequate latte after latte
All apologize I'm fine take your time
Boardwalk stroll back to the balcony
More greetings from gratefuls
And now: Grateful metaphysical breakfast

Everyone does. It draws crowds.
