All routine

All routine
I drink my tea
Prefer it weak
Three mint leaves
Rain on the sea
Rain on the street

All routine
Every day tea
The steam lingers
Snapping fingers
of a palm tree
deep rainy green

All routine
Same café seat
Around me blokes
Young and old
Men with clothes
rain has soaked

All routine
Many cups of tea
surrounded by men
Each one of them
are dying to be
married to me
