Java Jitters

The day the coffee stopped flowing.

 JAVA JITTERS

 

There was trouble brewing in the coffee shop,

With mechanical failure at fault.

The coffee grinder quit working,

And sales ground to a halt.

Yes, I was hooked on the caffeinated mud when I worked around the clock.
Then my health went downhill and I realized "This is a bunch of crock!"
It got so bad that I had trouble swallowing solid food one day.
I didn't give up coffee completely but now I can say, "no coffee today!"

That's what they mean by "caught in the grind."

You are the punmaster with gems like this.
