This piece is based on the "Igbo" meaning of "chi". To mean a personal, spiritual guide believed to determine the destiny, sucess and failure of the person or individual. It is a mystical assistant from birth through death. Most sucessful people are believed to have a good "chi". I hope you enjoy it.

Preface:
You're sitting alone at the bar of the coffee shop. You've got the usual.
black decaf latte, today's newspaper, and the pen that smears blue ink.
It’s the same every night, that's why you come back. Monotony is beautiful.
The only move you've made in what seems like hours was to refill your drink

a poem thats based on a word play, hope you enjoy it, would love to hear what you think :) thanks

This poem was selected for a competition and forms part of a collection for my second book due to be finished soon.

"The Woman Across the Room" is a poem within itself. My persona creates a poem about a woman he has spotted at an upscale restaurant. This poem is about the woman and the poem that I made about her.

Mistakes are only mental...Decisions are already destiny
