Ambition Tastes Like Coffee

Ambition tastes like coffee;
Bitter
Tangy
until we find brief, sweet relief -
 It fuels our labour, yet  
Ceaselessly
Strenuously   
fragrant solace strays further
a n  d   f    u     r      t       h        e         r          .
It leaves a familiar scent in its wake;
pungent and saccharine -
Desire, raw
(served extra hot)
So every sip
I taste ambition
And every time
It’s like a r e  w   a    r     d      .
