I am sitting on this chair
sipping on hot tea
while listening to you talking.

Fine,
I admit it
I am lying about the “listening” part.

As my mind is too busy wondering
what type of ceramic was used to make this
beautiful tea cup

and where the tea plant used
to make this cup of tea
was planted.

Maybe somewhere in a small village
in East Asia where the aroma
of tea plants resembles the landscape.

I couldn’t care less about what you were talking about
until you uttered the sentence :
“Babinski makes Einstein look cute”

It's basically a poetic essay on not caring what people say.
