A musical spar
or prong or flange
walked into a bar, and
there it stands.
The bartender, grim
at accustomed post
keeps screwing in
light bulbs
without count,
pouring nameless
drinks in proper
amounts, and
nodding her head
in absent mind,
while the musical
spar beats
drunken
time
proposing toast
after toast after
toast
