Spills
A cup tips.
Liquid slides
on the table
in all directions
and begins to drop
to the floor.
Napkins are saturated
and notebooks are
painted with sepia streaks.
Hands work quickly to
sop up the beverage,
erase the evidence
of the miscue.
The cup is refilled.
The stains are permanent
even though
they haven't dried.

Very metaphorical from one morning perspective.
