Laying on the nightstand 300 dollars rolled real tight rubber banded left for me I knew what it was for I did my job well Kids have to be fed Lights have to be on He rolled over stale with cigarette smoke coughing up a lung smiling gratefully he scratched his belly grabbed the remote with contentment finally when the commercials ran he looked up at me my hair mussed eyes tired glittered with perfume and asked me what he should have asked from the start “how was work tonight, hun?” looking down at my ring I laughed a little and responded… “About as good as it gets for a bartender dear…” |
