Creative writing is more of a compulsion to engage with yourself in a world of words, ideas, imagery. There are moments of hot exultation or prickly exasperated yet victorious expostulation when at last comes the right word, the rhyme that works or can yield surprise and pleasure. Thank you for sharing my engagement into those words. .

If it ain't drunk by the time I swiped the counter, it's going down the sink hole. So hurry up.
Oh, excuse me.
Okay, guys. Whose idea was it to leave the mannequin here? George, was it yours? Mark? I know one of you guys did it. So pay up on the drink.
I ain't got all night. My missus awaits me in bed. Yup, I do have a bed. And no, this doll ain't going home with me. She stays here. I got enough trouble pleasing my missus without her watching me.
Come on, time's up.
