Reserved By Feo. In a bar on Avenue A, on the television screen a woman is giving head, There's couples everywhere, affectionate couples, kissing and drinking together, I'm at the bar alone waiting for someone who never shows up, Standing out, cause I'm a writer, 2 minutes I'm told, Drinking alone, might as well drink at home, The **** on the screen is old vaudeville and sideburns, Anarchy in the jukebox, anarchy in my drink, The bartenders night was made by a regular and company, I write poems at bars and wait for no company, Surrounded on the weekend, doing what I could have done alone, I can't write alone, it's a habit not yet developed, I'm a habit who tips well.
