Ill be happy at happy hour
Ill buy two drinks for the price of one an drink em pretendin theyre one
I bought em until they filled my
table
the barmaid brought em on trays
I sipped one then another an another an I tapped em with my steel pen a Sheaffer
I arranged
em for the sounds they made
a girlshe smelled like a girl
sat at a table across from me
she had a steel pen
I asked Since you aint using your
pen mind if I borrow it
she nodded
she was happy without it
then with hers and mine I played
songs on my glasses
I sipped melted ice off em to keep
em tuned
I played em for awhile
I played em until they were empty flat sounding
all the same
but now
in my room I cant remember a title or the words
I sang to a single songI cant remember
how they went
they went right out of my head on
a sheen of liquor oil
I dont feel particularly wrongedwhich
isnt to say Im not bothered
still overall Im excited
Ill be happy again tomorrow
Im happy at happy hour
