Wee Jimmy's Bar - (For the Barfly Comp)

 
It was almost 2:00 am. I had drank myself sober
I wandered the grey dirty streets rather than going home
The yellow neon sign flickers; Wee Jimmy's Place
Looked like a good spit and sawdust for a nightcap
I squeaked both doors open stepping inside slowly
The only thing missing was rolling tumble weed
The silence was deafening, definitely my kinda place

In the corner of my eye I spied the end of the bar
Long blonde hair, long tanned legs on show
My eyes traced her shape; she's was a ten plus
Couldn't yet see her face, it was facing straight ahead
I sat close to her but not too close for comfort
My eyes travelled up and down her sexy frame
Ironically Wee Jimmy is six foot nine inches tall
"Hi I am Frank; what can I get you?"
He spat in the glass and cloth cleaned it
I ordered a wild turkey and a beer chaser
I kept looking across at her in her red sparkles
She stared into her cocktail mindlessly stirring
I noticed two rings on the bar and a white ghost
On her wedding ring finger tanned either side
Next to them a crumpled hand written letter
And some well used damp looking handkerchiefs
She looked up and across at me her lip curled a smile
Half baked she smiled through blood shot eyes
Apart from a small crescent scar above her brow
She is stunningly beautiful just a perfect package
I moved closer, right next to her, trying not to be cheesy
"You are too beautiful to be crying." Damn it - cheesy
Thank you was said with a husky sexy voice, Oh boy!
I thought I might be in love, No! I was in love; again
"I looked at you and realised heaven must be missing an angel."
Despite my cheese a tear drop rolled down her cheek
"Could you please hold me?" she pouted
No sooner said than done an instant warm embrace
Her head rested on my shoulder, she slightly trembled
We disengaged, regretfully on my part, but appropriately
"My name is David, I am luckless in love as well."
She grinned; "I am Wee Jimmy and this is my place."
"So why do they call you Wee Jimmy?" I asked
"Well; It's because I only have a small penis."
"You hide it well!" is all I could think of to say
