playlist of metal and punk,

generous doubles -

above the 4 ounce standard;

I like this place.


The bartender’s drinking too;

looks like rum - dark and sweet -

neat.. my man!


no one bothers me,

I bother no one;

only sit and sip my drink,


peace.. solace.. tranquil..


listening to the montage

of dirty jokes

from the men center bar.


They laugh - not loudly,

they are quite old.. mousey..

squeaky voiced..


I chuckle as Skid Row skids

just outside the door -

it doesn’t come in

until after dark.


This city hasn’t much to

offer a redneck like me,

but I like this place. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 65 [topic] => 43 [informant] => Nightwolf [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops ) Your Poetry Dot Com - King Eddy

Dark and cozy,

playlist of metal and punk,

generous doubles -

above the 4 ounce standard;

I like this place.


The bartender’s drinking too;

looks like rum - dark and sweet -

neat.. my man!


no one bothers me,

I bother no one;

only sit and sip my drink,


peace.. solace.. tranquil..


listening to the montage

of dirty jokes

from the men center bar.


They laugh - not loudly,

they are quite old.. mousey..

squeaky voiced..


I chuckle as Skid Row skids

just outside the door -

it doesn’t come in

until after dark.


This city hasn’t much to

offer a redneck like me,

but I like this place.
