macadamia

An older man, mid-sixties, I'd say
sat with a group of friends,
all coffee-drinkers,
and just after he shoveled
his milk chocolate macadamia cookie
down his eager throat,
he slurped up his cup of coffee,
same flavour, regular, not decaf,
and causally licked the inner rim of
the cup.

He wiped his chin
with a crumby napkin,
grinning to himself,
for nobody saw him,
or so he thinks...
