Paper Filter

You open yourself so easily
When edges are pushed gently

A baseless and upsidedown pyramid
Waiting eagarly to be filled with ground coffee
and hot water

Your discering and wise judgement
Creates the perfect boundary
Between wet and dirt-like coffee grounds
And heavenly hot coffee dripping through

You keep good hold of the used coffee
As I throw you unthinkingly into the bin
