A Palindrome
Last Call is almost upon us...
"[Lost] on the dark streets of some city,
it's night, you're lost, where's your
room? You enter a bar to find yourself"*
*(quote from "Big Night On The Town" by Charles Bukowski. The remaining text is mine.)
For awhile, you feel at home in the bar, but eventually you grow tired, Whatever special energy kept you going all night 15 or 20 years ago is nowhere to found. You're living out of endless motel & hotel rooms.
Your family left town days ago. The town could be anywhere and you can't connect, despite some friends.
You pay your bill and leave the bar. You have remembered where your room is -- in a hotel not far away. Tomorrow you'll check out and find and another hotel, lost in a town that holds no memories.
