Self-deprecating was he who arrived cold from the sea and drank booze like it’s free ‘til he pissed and he moaned “I lost my boat - my home and a brand new android phone so I’ve no calls nor texts to annoy me - of those possessions I’m free but carry a debt you can’t see - the bank owns a big chunk of me along with my phone my boat and my home.” Says the barkeep to me, “That’s an interesting story but I must disagree as the booze is not free. The tab is now due and I’ve a question for you, how will you pay - cash, credit or debit today? If monetary funds you can’t find it’s hard work or hard time as you don’t drink on my dime so now’s the time to pay for the crime. You can work off your bar tab as a unique form of rehab or loan me your new android phone to call a free cab with loud sirens and bright lights all on display to whisk you away for a week and a day!” © David Girard ...
