Caffeinated lava flowing
Toward my soul
Accursed awakening
Gas station coffee
Morning ritual
The prompt is “gas station coffee” from Maria Giesbrecht @theguelphpoet on Instagram. April 1, National Poetry Month 2022.

A History Of Irrelevant Facts
Beneath the dark sky,
Nature reclaims ancient ruins.
This place is sacred.
Violent past rewritten,
Disguised with celebration.
