Surprise Me!

John Kipling Lewis - here at the bar

here at the bar
with my wine
with myself

the rain is not a baptism
it never touches my head

the rain dampens my pants,
my shoes, i'm a drunk
who can't control
his urination

here at the bar i am safe
and the mirror holds my smile

John Kipling Lewis
