The only thing wrong with this poem ,Jack, is the word Mostly in S4. As a modifier it isn't clear what it modifies, The French the telling or the coffee. "Mostly coffee" doesn't really make sense in context. "coffee is mostly" would be clearer than "mostly is not." I'd just drop the word, it confuses the sense of the verse.
Apart from that. Really excellent.
Live and be well - H

I wanna know who "she" in S3 is. And I wanna know if "the mug she used to use" refers to an actual mug, the kind you pour coffee in, or a metaphorical one, like the one a man becomes when he falls for the wrong (but so right!) woman. I'm too stoned to go for the first choice.
They think he's Spanish. They also think he's thinking about coffee. And there he is, all alone, above the abyss.

I couldn't work this out sober, but she sounds like one you will remember.
