Too Much Coffee

I've had far too much French pressed coffee today

An indulgence in caffeine, and now I must pay

The third cup was really too much for my need

Now my left leg is tapping "Bolero" on speed

 

If I could just sit still and get work done - but no

I'm restless and just want to pace to and fro

The outside is calling, a heady distraction

Like i need another productivity infraction

 

So I sit here and focus - or try to, at least

While my system is ridden by the brewed Java beast

In a few hours I'm sure I'll be tired as a dog

In the meantime, bad poems appear on my blog
