Inspiration at the Local Cafe

This public place where space-less linger, rapt,
Gives me solace. Where fair cherry wood seats
Accept my back, and I cannot adapt
To clatter of Protean mouths and beats.

I thrive among this amorphous clatter,
Have grown fond of noise and unfamiliar
Faces but familiar seat and chatter
Of voices unregistered but so near.

It’s like I dive in fluctuating sea
Where rippling currents defy cognition
Until elusive old man Noise decrees
After I clasp and persist: perception.

Each visit I grapple the novel mood
‘Til chaos morphs at last into my muse.
