Listen to the words of the Great Mother, She who of old was called
among men Savarin, Nescafe, Folgers Crystals and so many other
names...
Whenever ye have need of wakefulness, at least once in the day, and
better it be when the sun is rising, then ye shall assemble in your
kitchens and adore the essence of Me who am Queen of all Beverages.
There ye shall assemble, ye who are fain to gain awakening, yet have
not won open eyes, to these I will teach things that are yet unknown.
And ye shall be free from coherence; and as a sign that ye be truly
free, ye shall be yawning in your rites; and ye shall read the
morning paper, make bacon and eggs, and drive to work, all in My
praise. For Mine is the ecstasy of the awakened, and Mine also is joy
on earth; for My law is sleeplessness unto all beings.
Keep clean your mug; let naught float upon its surface and so turn
your stomach. For Mine is the secret door which opens upon the land
of coherence, and Mine is the cup of the Elixir of Life, and the
Cauldron of Caffeine, which is the Holy Grail of Insomnia. I am the
Gracious Goddess, who gives the gift of wakefulness unto the mind of
man. Upon awakening, I give the knowledge of the caffeine high
eternal, and beyond morning, I give peace, and warmth, and tolerance
of those with whom ye must interact. Nor do I demand aught of
Saccharin; for Behold! I am the Mother of all Stimulants, and My love
is poured out into your mug.

Just occasionally mind.... and decaf after midday if I intend to sleep...
I got taken to Gloria Jeans when I was in sydney, and I looked at the menu and said... "Would you speak to me ever again if I asked for a flat white with soy milk?" and he said "Maybe in a few days..." so I said "OK" gave in and asked for a Caramelatte.
Now, sugar is not a substance which should hurt, is it? It burnt all the way down, and it was lukewarm, just the sugar in it oh my god! And I forgot about the dairy thing, so it was ALL MILK. LOL. But there you go, I have now done Gloria Jeans. And will probably become a diabetic because of it. *grin*

The hands acquire shakes
The shakes become a warning
It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion
