subliminally slithered,
and deftly insinuated himself
into body electric of yours truly

mounted on a stool, with his elbows resting on the bar, 
eating a Big Mac and sipping coffee from a McCafe coffee cup. 

The outside view he...

Lined with velvet carpets coy in lavish modesty.
Dulcet tones elapsing past the sundry finished chambers

all these are familiar.
The map of this part of Ohio
