Some Like It Hot

By Paula Curci

some like it smooth
some like it tall
some take it with vermouth
some don’t like it at all
I like it hot
I like it hot
and sweet
some like it grande’
some like it black
some take it handy
yet others find it whack
but, I like it
I like it
hot
and sweet
some like it late
some like it early
some drink it… latte’
yet, others would rather Earl Grey
But for me… I like it hot
I like it
hot and
sweet!
