CUP OF TEA

My Cup of Tea
   The Cup of Tea
Shook hands with me,
   "Hello, how do you do?"
I could not make A "namaskar".
   He gripped my fingers
Licked my lips
   entered my mouth
pressed my tongue
   Burnt my throat
I swirled deep deep
   In the cup of Tea
A cube of sugar.
   The telephone went on ringing.
My cup of tea has drunk me to the lees.
