Crowded bar Drink held in hand Music blaring loud Pretty sure my soul is ****** After the second round Shot of whiskey down throat One more to follow Sea of ***** keeping afloat Weightless with each swallow Dizzy head Thick and light Clouded Pulsing And hazy Tiredness drags down my sight Legs relaxed and lazy Warmth spreads throughout torso Fingertips begin to tingle Euphoria inside my brain grows My neurons and serotonin mingle Air heavy Sweat and motion Humid heat clinging to my skin Around me is a blurred commotion Logic and sense wearing thin Tummy performing cartwheels Whole place unbalanced and dark Stool wobbly underneath my heels Bartender pouring from a fifth of Monarch Saturday night in a tiny town Where everything else is just too far So you find yourself driving the same road down To the local nothing-better-to-do bar

In Talkeetna that bar is called The Fairview which is where I was when I began writing this little treasure haha
