HOTEL BAR HOLIDAY




  hotel bar 
plush wide deep chairs / a rich haven
of 
plaques 
listing 
past glory / big name bar rats
who
sozzled here in cool gone days

  and
fucked up in a glass corner
our
money is still good - foreign funny-face paper 
to
us
  and
we 
are 
laughing laughing laughing -
which booze to choose ?
  which
  booze
  to
  choose . . . all served up with dainty stirrer 
wedged in the iceflow 
  to gurn on 
  to chew on

  we walk famous avenue blocks 
dayheat trapped in steam cement
to 
gentrified bottle shop ( retro glam
found
only
in
the
books / old films / photo galleries east of the park )
buy a snifter to share - we crush pills 
  on 
  the 
rain wet carpet steps
  of
  cut-rate 
  boho hole 
  babbling over tourist holes 
  to 
find / avoid 

 from drinkwire.liqour.com
