Here is draft poem #4 included here for your feedback and comments. I'm not sure I like this one. What do you think?

He drank from the paper
cup of coffee until
the message

at the bottom of the cup
told him to stop. Otherwise,
he’d drink coffee until

the bottom of that cup
dissolved into stares
of disbelief. But still

he writes in his leather-bound
notebook about the bugs
hovering over the cup.
