it's always the same stella with a cold glass double patron silver chilled really well salted rim at the same bars with different people and a lot of times the same people drinking wishing they had a cigarette in their fingers or a woman or man on their arm drunker then they are they know they won't make the night face up.
jack daniels. and eddie and mary and joey or pat or jose or eduardo or absolute and if it has alcohol that's fine too.
this is not cheers but everyone knows your name but have no clue who you are.
we're not really here we're somewhere off on a beach resort with a tall one and a pink umbrella and a tropical evening breeze drinking.
your brain is numb to the hammering in your head the screaming from the loudest drunks in the room pretending they’re not leaning over just a little too much or smashed down on the bar top their face in their three dollar drinks the plastic swizzle stick stuck up their nose and they’re laughing their asses off and no one even notices.
this is not cheers but everyone knows your name but have no clue who you are and that's a good cold drink. January 23, 2010
