Matcha
Reworked poem, originally from my book, Drinking Poetry
Matcha is a cult
For an army of health and
Antioxidants
Green powder born in
The land of the rising sun
Slayer of toxins
Supreme green matcha
Works magic miracles for
Those slow hangovers
Matcha is a trend
A sweet-flavoured lifestyle for
Otaku hipsters
Green powder transforms
To lattes, cakes, booze and snacks
Best pudding flavour
Supreme green matcha
Passed the exam with flying
Hues of blue and green
Matcha is a tale
Leaves regenerated by
Loving farmer’s hands
Green powder travels
To a thousand cities and
Oriental shops
Supreme green matcha
Down on our knees we pray
For neighbour’s health
