Sunday Sprinkle: Cool Kids in Bourbon Bar

Cool Kids in Bourbon Bar

Upstairs in an Athens, Georgia bar, we were gathered together.

We were from different places, but were connected—

by a certain society and liquor.

A big booth became our territory.

Boys and girls stood on the seats

and more gathered around the table.

Over 20 drinks were placed on it.

Finish one. Grab another.

We called the dawgs and chanted.

We sang parts of a song at the wrong time,

the Star-Spangled Banner proudly and loudly in unison,

and Happy Birthday twice.

A group of girls asked, “Who are you?”

They said we looked like fun.

Another girl joined us even though she didn’t know us.

Others were enchanted.

We were the cool kids.

The North Dakota guys shouted.

A Georgia boy wore a red and black bow tie.

Leaders with spirit, energy, and inspiration.

Down to have fun with you
and living to serve too.

Sparkle&Shine.
