Remember,
Them waiting behind the bars
Music filling the air,
You wondering….
“Who’s behind the bars?”
You ordering, “shots, pints, tots”
Them gladly obliging,
Serving with a smile,
From behind the bar,
You taking in the environment,
Them scanning and planning,
Others watching the behinds in bars,
His smile failing to hide thoughts,
Hers giving way to a lecherous grin,
An idea kicking in,
Picking them up,
Moving them, leaving the bar behind
Now everyone’s wondering,
Feeling trapped
Missing the bitter
Hoping for better
When they’ll trade this time behind bars
For one more time…
…behind the bars.
