Holding Court

At the lively bar
Both the king and the jester
Sit in the same chair

An ugly bastard
gives me the drunken stink eye
from across the bar

Closing

the sound of glasses
a lonely figure cleans up
the once crowded bar

Time to Think

He poured a tall one
Sipped it deliberately
And planned his next move

The Regular

His favorite beer
Is waiting for him before
He gets to his seat.

A bar too far…

Just hang out with her
and you’ll know why I call her
“A bar too far”

Happy With What You Have

Though he had to stand,
And his favorite beer was gone.
No complaints escaped.

Isn’t that the guy
That sat alone at the bar
Every day this week

This Ain’t Haiku: Beer Run - An Epic Tale

While drinking at home late last night
I had me a terrible fright
To the fridge I did go
And I suffered a blow
The only thing there was called Lite

My head quickly started to spin
What a pickle I found I was in
I suppose I could find
Something else for my mind
Perhaps vodka or what about gin?

I ran to my home bar so fast
And what I found left me aghast
If only I’d known
That my whole stock was blown
Oh, the size of my problem was vast

Response to Optimism

She left real quickly
Lost at the bar, I ponder
Barkeep, suggestions?

It’s five o’clock somewhere…

Five o’clock beckons
Drawn by cheap food and cold beer
I head to the bar.

Just what I needed

attentive barmaid
my mug is never empty
you have no equal
