Irony, Starbucks Style
August 8, 2007 in Coffee Stories | No comments
After my writer’s meeting tonight I stopped by Starbucks for a latte, and noticed the cup was advertising a movie called Arctic Tale. It showed a mother and cub polar bear with the inscription, “The change in their world impacts us all.”
Off to the side is posed the question of what we can do at home to fight global warming. Their answer: “Launder half our clothes in cold water.”
Below that was printed: “Careful, the beverage you’re about to enjoy is extremely hot.”

The Coffee Must Flow
It is by caffeine alone I
set my mind in motion.
It is by the brew of coffee
that thoughts acquire
speed, the teeth acquire
stains, the stains become
a warning. It is by caffeine
alone I set my mind in
motion.
