Preferences
I drink tea tepid,
soda sans carbonation,
clinging past their primes.

I love the natural alliteration of this poem! The last line is perfect; it brings the poem together and reveals to the reader a meaning deeper than simple preference. You’ve given me a lot to consider in three short lines! Very well done!
That’s what I was going for — glad you liked it!
Love the multi-layered meaning, the speaker who stays with things, kind of a loyalty. By the way, I’m so drawn by your profile photo!
Thank you (regarding the poem and profile photo)! The picture is the more rocky, bottom part of Niagara Falls; I took it when my family went there a while back. : )
