about

I looked grown by the end of seventh grade and was known to sneak into dive bars during middle school lunch, with mixed results.

JOY'S BAR LADIES' LUNCH RUSH '79
(c) 2020 by Nick Bensen

"Thanks, I'll have a rum and coke
Wanna go have fun upstairs?
Husband's gone, kids in school
Honestly, nobody cares

I mean to fix things up a bit
But time just always gets away
Don't tell my daughter you were here
I couldn't think of what to say

I'll call you in sick at school
It's fun pretending I'm your mom
But this is all just you and me
Please be quiet when you're gone

I never do weird things like this but ...
There's something special in your smile."
Now I have to drive all night
Outrace the memories with the miles
