PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I found a bar

across the street

from the train station

there were shots of Powers

Lord Chestefield on draught

I was a long way

from Kansas

but likely closer to Kansas

than Seattle or New York City

credit cards are verboten

and 50 dollar bills

are viewed suspiciously

a red cap hits

on a waitress

but a burly bouncer strolls by

and red cap turns pink

I finish up my beer

and pay the barkeep

I have a train to catch

and thoughts of Dorothy

“There’s no place like home”

are echoing in my mind
