Where’s the 2nd Amendment ppl now. Guys who walk into coffeehouses & supermarkets with their big guns hanging off their fat asses. Pretti had a license to carry & his gun was in a holster never once taken out or pointed at anyone. But he’s the terrorist? MAGA slobs with guns have rights but not him?

BLIZZARD
the soft economy of ghosts;
on the couch,
we note the sensuousness of the phenomenon,
whose cosmos of cotton ensconces
coffeehouses, townhouses, towns:
the gusty monotony of the tempest,
then the monotone hush of footsteps on snow

Every Caucasian-American liberal's wet dream.
Meanwhile, as us Browns get deported and murdered and raped in prison they sit back in quiet coffeehouses and only WISH they can suffer like the rest of us.
Ah, but their skin tone saves then every time.
It's been their go-to for many many years now.

My "favorite" tactic is ASCAP and BMI...the publishing rights companies created to ENSURE ARTISTS GET PAID shaking down small venues like bars and coffeehouses foe blanket "licensing"fees in hundreds of dollars per month, ensuring there are no small venues for live music listening or performance

For those of you not versed in British history, it would be over 100 years until Sir Robert Peel stamped out the illicit trade in helium that caused people to talk so high in coffeehouses.
Captain Brewer, the paynter, tells me how highly the Presbyters do talk in the coffeehouses still, which I wonder at.

When I was in my mid 20s and managing coffeehouses, customers always just assumed I was the owner and were surprised to learn otherwise.

Thanks, these are all my original designs. I used to always carry a never-worn copy of whichever shirt I happened to be wearing, when going out to coffeehouses, and would sell them to people who asked where to get one =p
