"Coffee Randoms" was the title of a poem my roommate Sara wrote when we were in college. (It is now also the title of
her blog.) I don't remember all of the poem; to my memory it was mostly about scenes in which people were drinking coffee (I could be wrong about that - at any rate,
we were in it and likely drinking coffee - both in the poem and while reading it) - but
anyway, she used this phrase in her poem in reference to coffee that I think of almost daily. She called it "lifeblood." I am identifying deeply with that concept this morning.
