Excellent

Looks like me first thing in the morning. I make sure my coffee is 'high test'. Your syllable count is perfect; great illustration; enjoyed your poem.

i like my coffee fully loaded the first thing with coca bits, chicory, cinnamon, dandelion tea, nutmeg, turmeric and milk brewed up in a French press, after that I like it straight black for my second and third cup.

This 2-4-6-8 poem, Coffee While Watching the News, contains the basic understanding given to us in the title: Good coffee doing what coffee does while one is assaulted by the televised news broadcast.

You are right about the dismal factor of the news--over
and over the same spiel. I'm happy for you that coffee helps
you digest it. Good job with your contest entry. The syllables
are correct per line.
Best wishes in the contest, Jan
