Sunday i woke early and scrounged around the house for change, i needed a cup of coffee bad. i only needed a $1.00 and could only come up with .64 cents. i went to the doughnut shop at the corner in hopes someone i knew was there and i could come up with the rest of the money. when i arrived no one was there, i walked around looking for change on the ground just like a scavenger. i saw a man standing near by and asked for change and was denied any, samething when i asked another. wow, i just wanted a cup of coffee i wasn't looking for booze here it is 8:30 am, and i don't look like a panhandler. Denied .35 cents so i decided to try to get a cup with the change i had, they know me at the shop anyway i just rather pay for my things.
i got my coffee and was sitting outside the shop watching the crows walking around the tables looking for food. a crow lands on top of the table near by and starts picking at crumbs that were left. wow, that is when i realized 10 min ago i was just like that crow, but instead of crumbs i was looking for small change with no luck. the crow made out better and i am happy for him but, pretty sad for myself. ah, i got my coffee so i shouldn't complain.

Your title fits your piece really well! Nice observations. NO_ONE should ever be denied their coffee!
