the barmen have retired

in #poetry6 years ago

the barmen have retired

well, the night got pretty silent,
then the drunk men got all violent,
smashing bottles right outside the club doors.

the barmen have retired
for the night; they got too tired
of trying to keep the place clean, and the floors.

don’t fall asleep before it’s closing time.
two tequilas with double lime,
and some salt to make it go down smooth.

i’m trying to be the man that you bring home.
i don’t want to have to roam
the streets all night looking for a bed.

it takes one to know one is what they’re telling us.
oh, the magazines are selling us
some crap about celebreties abroad.

i’m so excluded from society,
and i don’t know sobriety;
if i met him, i would offer him a drink.
