Lunar Coffee

The moon bends over the ceramic table,
digging time with a shovel of light.
The coffee stays open only at midnight,
suspended vapors dissolving in silence.
Each teaspoon is a spade upon the clock,
seconds fall like dark beans on the table.
When the last cup falls silent, the moon stitches the day,
leaving the deep void of an extended night.
