Slipping to Bitter Mint
You know, I don't have much to say. So, I think I'll post a "writing" and a pic.
Bitter Mint
4-5-4
We went and played the twisty sport of foosball,
my friend, did I tell you he’s kinda tall?
We then received a call from an old friend,
Then met him and had a brew around the bend.
In the bar where we met him was a band,
Two guys with acoustics, I quickly became a fan,
Playing several songs from The Beatles and Radiohead,
I sometimes decided not to talk and listen to the music instead.
From there we went to a club called the Red Door,
And there were a lot of people on the opened air 2nd floor.
We just stood there looking at all the “pretty” people,
I wondered why my attempts to talk to them would appear feeble.
There was a girl there that my friend, Brent, knew I would like,
She was cute, but there was no real reason for my heart to spike,
The reason I’m telling you is because of how my pal said it,
And from now on I think I’m going use the label because it seemed to fit,
He said, “check the girl, the dragon from Kimono”
When I say it now, I think of the wife of the Beatle of Ono,
Anyways, we went home and watched a movie,
I’m still qouting it, “they killed killer, B!”
The next morning my buddy woke me, I was asleep on the couch,
He asked if I wanted breakfast, from his ex-girlfriend the grouch,
Not really, but I was quiet, I just decided be cool and went with it,
I kinda wanted to go home, my mouth smelled like a dirty arm pit.
I got some gum and after breakfast we went and shoot some hoops,
In a 1 on 1, I would surely lose with WNBA star Sheryl Swoops.
But I had tonz of fun and continued on with my day,
Oh yea, I also played some tennis, but anyway…
At that point we were hungry again and decided to go to Niko Niko’s,
My first time to visit, I played it safe and ordered one of their gyros,
By the way, if you’ve never been, you need to go have one!
We sat outside and ate under a table unbrella under the sun.
Then we went back to his apartment and watched another movie,
“Mr. Deeds” this time, did you know the theme song is from the DMB?
The DMB is an insider’s acronym for the Dave Matthew’s Band,
The song always reminds me of T and our big plan,
Oh well, from there we met Juan and his wife for a night on Main,
It was cool, we talked about our old band and the song of Jane,
We went to an Irish pub and they were playing U2,
Geez, U2 is so much better than the music rapper’s spew.
From there it was on to another bar called the Hub,
It’s more of a small dance club instead of a pub,
The ceilings were low and this girl started talking to me,
About how blue bonnets make Texas look favorably,
Brent got the cool one, an architecture major from Rice,
But it’s okay, my blue bonnet from PA was still pretty nice.
We left there and went to an upscale pad coined the Mercury Room,
They started playing reggae and it was cool past the bass and the boom,
Beautiful distractions abound, but shyness is not something newly found,
Even a girl stood next to me for a long while, and I did nothing, not even a smile.
From there we went to an all night New York styled deli,
A turkey and cheese sandwich is what I chose to fill my belly.
I heard my favorite song of the moment while we were eating,
Maps by the Yeah Yeah Yeah’s has a sound of a bittersweet sting.
Waking today, I finally went home feeling the refreshed air under a clipped wing.

Maybe, but definitely with different colors.
