coffee of shaded groves
brew of terraced troves
toasted dark, mixed in blends
left as green in ecologic trends
something of this bean meant energetic boosts
imported in bulk to satisfy connaiseur roosts
food, mineral value swept aside
in casba haunts, addicts hide
pictured with flavourful mugs
satiating conglomerate thugs
successful names, world around
began as Mocha did centuries ago
coffee of shaded groves
the latest to grow.

In the navy coffee is often called "fleet plasma".I still have a callus on my cup finger.
