Most Interesting

Collaborative poetry

The most interesting person
in any bar
is usually the bartender
You find out
if you're lucky

The best ones lie
between each smile
while most lack such ambition

The stack of Quick Draw slips
a reminder
you wouldn't be here
without her

While the Joker Poker gives you the finger
and the new jukebox robs you
of music worth hearing

You're not yet old enough
to join the day drinking fraternity

Could be worse
most nights you avoid
going to strip joints
to throw away money
like an athlete failing a drug test
you couldn't pass either
