Storm in the cup

Brew it strong and black
That's how I like my expresso!
Father told me when he first visited.
How is your new job?
He anxiously asked unreservedly
I simply nodded
And said something I don't quite remember
He revisited our talk from the week last
The light went off
Suddenly
Don't you pay for your power?
He once again butted in
I feared next on the line was that talk again
Before the power went off
Then I stood to check out his coffee
He stopped me
The talk was coming,
Clearly
When I finally managed to break loose
All was not well in the pot
I was snoozing
And the coffee was all gone!
