Two "plain" glazed donuts and a large coffee please. One spoon of pure white sugar for the sweetness, two spoons of sugar for the memory that I always used to take two spoons in my tea when a little boy in Poland, three spoons of sugar just because the number three is more than magical, four spoons of sugar because of the four seasons, the four corners of the world, the four elements, five spoons of sugar because of the thumbs on my hands being in a place that allows me to just grab stuff, six spoons of sugar clearly point to indulgence... the seventh spoon of sugar was just for good luck. I looked at the large styrofoam cup filled with a very saturated brown liquid and thought how very sweet it is to eat and drink something so wrong.
gag!

Heh, we used to drink coffee by the thermos full while smoking and writing poetry in a coffee shop, then go out and drink beer and sing along to good music at a local pub, all in the name of a writing group. I would be so flying and the words would just scream on their way out of my pen.
The shakes, though, heh. Coming down isn't as fun as the ride there.
