v2.0 (made some clarity changes, ending dropped because it sounded too assuming, which is very bad.)
Alone man... enjoys his
Single coffee.
Black coffee.. poems could write
How appropriate to his hunching-over,
It finds itself. Dominated by mood.
Risen steam, meets white-spattered red
Jacket, some light hairs of a beard
And abandoned grey head mop.
The man's still in the cold, I can tell
Won't look up or around- stares at the mug... :
Prized, protected. Waits between sips, a dog
The owner preoccupied in thought, uses thumbs:
Temporarily nursing an imaginary companion
This one thing that he has.

Won't look up or around, stares at the mug...
Prized, protected. Waits between sips, a dog
The owner fearing departure, maybe?
Temporarily nursing an imaginary loved one
This one thing that he has.
A waitress walks over, eyeing...
Why don't you just let him
Enjoy his coffee.
