loose ceiling fan jiggles
brown and orange coffee pots
iced tea, lemons
sandwiches
party trays
mochas and lattes
Freddy Mercury on the radio
under pressure
the smell of oil and vinegar
soup in a bread bowl
cranberries, fifty cents extra
avocado, a dollar extra
unless you order the vegetarian
big screen tv in the corner
hosni mubarak
will at least try
to remain president
order here
restroom
black mat
clock
exit
we I.D.
the president condemns the chaos
a plot to overthrow
aware of the suffering of the people
red plastic tray bowl
thin metallic forks
Tork Xpressnap dispenser
salt and pepper
demands that social networking be reactivated
keep the troops off the streets
rectangles of sun
shadows of homey kitchen chairs
concrete floor
cool air
sleepy tables
grey plastic register
microwave
toaster
kitsch trophy
tanks on the streets
Lays, Doritos, Fritos
Coors, Buds, Coronas
truckers
pink sweatsuit headband
helicopter photography of our town
Mount Shasta
panorama
far off riots
a threat
to you
personally
