Golden strands
In an amber syrup
Fall into a cup of warm white milk
And a spoon stirs the milk in with the silk
And then a pinch of saffron
Dyes the cup a dull, beautiful red
I put the cup to my mouth
And drink
When I finish the sip
There's a milk mustache
Under my nose
I brush it off with my sleeve
Then
My nose takes another dip
