James Lee Jobe

strong coffee

I love Cuban music, poetry from long ago in Japan and China, and art deco buildings in old cities. I embrace the idea of space travel, but before lift off I would have us first make sure that every belly is full. And speaking of food, I like hot sauce on mine, and I crave coffee so strong that the neighbors can smell it, and come over for a cup. To watch the clouds drift across a blue sky pleases me, and so does the sound of an owl late at night. It is good, this life, like a kind child slipping beneath the blankets on a winter night. I hold my hands up to the moon and stars to give thanks, and the endearing light shines down with the sweetest love.
