Game Theory

Coffee makes me paranoid, but she likes
a fresh pot after the shower
so I have adapted, learned about burr grinders
purifying water, gold filters, quality beans
These scarabs with their unctuous shine
Starbucks customers think their local news is informative
but Peet’s is too indulgent and what about fair trade,
song birds, organic farming, shade
I have been unfaithful and she knows everything
I have been unfaithful and she suspects nothing
She has been unfaithful and I will learn about it
She has been unfaithful and I will never know
