the bar doesn’t even want me


its  a dead end
when i pull up
to the watering hole
the lights outside
are shut down
disappointment on
my face
the tv inside is passing out
from having too many
drinks that i will not
indulge in

i had plans to drink
sour whiskey
until my eyes closed
and piss out my problems

i see a small elegant
slender figure walking about
i know that figure
as i studied it
many times over

i wait for the “open”
sign to turn on
but
the figure disappears
into the dark
and the tv is out cold
nothing new to me
so i move on
