CERN coffee man,

a cup of CERN espresso

a cup of CERN espresso

I enter the courtyard.

CERN coffee man,

you make eye contact from behind your reading glasses and maintain it as I approach.

CERN coffee man,

your glasses are always on your face but you never use them for reading.

CERN coffee man,

your eyes are halfway behind your glasses and your expression is … quizzical.

CERN coffee man,

when I order coffee in French you answer in English.
