bar
in Little Creek
next to a motel 6,
that advertised Liver and Onions
on Thursday nights.
in bold red letters it was
lit up on their
parking lot sign.
dancing too. live music.
ladies night,
half price.
why?
i don't know.
we avoided it like
the black
plague,
there was always a cop
car and
an ambulance
outside.
although my father
couldn't get enough
of place,
which accounted
for his occasional broken
nose,
and black eyes.
