   A tanka with a Kyoka feel: intriguing! Must be fun hearing an OT-quoting barista at work! Nicely done!

   I like the thought of a barista being an evangelista.

   Great fun. Witty use of the form and evocation of all those grande verses.

   You really made me chuckle. That would be such a strange way to get a cup of coffee.

   Plenty of those around here, though I’ve never found one at Starbucks. I’ve had many a blessed day as a result. (K)

   Well, I’ve heard that Joshua Judges Ruth, so why not a Starbucks Evangelista!! My grandson is a youth pastor and part-time barrista. I must ask him if he’s as talented!
