Midnight Pub

and then,.

~tffb

gusts of wind fill the alley - the tucked away nook "away" from the big web. Heavy heaves and intense velocity forces the Pub door open.

I slip in, the door slams behind me.

I skirt around the Pub, looking around, not expectantly, but curiously - hands in pocket, thinking: "what to drink".

I fire a smoke and sit at the bar, Smudge jumps and seemingly conjurs himself from nowhere, now in front of me, low purrs and demanding attention.

I lift the cigarette from my lips, half-looking at him with an eyebrow slightly raised. Exhaling, relaxing, my left hand reaches to pet the fur friend from Web corners unknown.

3 AM. Surely there is a song to reference. Sixx AM(?)

      well, I've got to write, to keep on postin'
           and I'm bound, to coffee roastin'
        and I've got one more, screed to holler
       but I'm not gonna let 'em scratch me, no
     not gonna let 'em scratch the midnight poster

        and I don't moan the prose I'm bearing
             and the code runs on forever
        and I've got one more, screed to holler
       but I'm not gonna let 'em scratch me, no
     not gonna let 'em scratch the midnight poster

      and I've typed fast, the point I'm sharing
        some might shred, the words I'm snaring
        and I've got one more, screed to holler
       but I'm not gonna let 'em scratch me, no
     not gonna let 'em scratch the midnight poster

     no, but I'm not gonna let 'em scratch me, no
     not gonna let 'em scratch the midnight poster
     no, but I'm not gonna let 'em scratch me, no
   I'm not gonna let 'em scratch the midnight poster
     no, but I'm not gonna let 'em scratch me, no
   I'm not gonna let 'em scratch the midnight poster
