Coffee house tucked away
in a line of stores on a busy street
with characters straight out of a book
that hasn't yet been written
that make a statement with
ink and piercings, dreadlocks
ratted perfectly on more than one
and the only thing speaking louder
than the bumper stickers on more than one
Prius in the parking lot,
are the books they hold like shields
and build up around themselves
on the almost clean tables
