My poem, "Love Poem," is in the latest Better Than Starbucks Poetry Journal (May 2021). I don't know how the journal got it's name, but from my vantage point here in eastern Sicily, yes, Starbucks can do fun coffee drinks, but Italian coffee wins. Most visitors go for the tiny sips from tiny cups in tiny bars, but I say the best coffee is homemade, either from the Moka or an espresso machine. You determine the strength, the length and the mix. You find your favorite brand. You buy the cup that fits your lips.
However, I'm not a coffee fanatic. I prefer tea that's left in the pot to get cold, strong and bitter. To each their own drink. In the US, I tried the Starbucks cold brew, but it knocked my socks off. Good for commuters.
"Love Poem," what a lousy title! Better read it to see if you like the poem. And explore the BTS universe of poetry on the site. Thanks to editor Vera Ignatowitsch for the thumbs up.
