Playing The Street Walker Role In Bisbee — Image by kenne
Looking for Business
the Copper Queen hums behind her,
old ghosts drinking warm beer,
laughing at the living.
she checks her lipstick
in a classic car window—
there’s music from the bar,
the kind that makes a man
believe in one more mistake.
she’s not young, not old,
just caught somewhere
between the promise of morning
and the price of staying alive.
the evening leans in close,
and business is business
looking for an afternoon quicky.

I love bisbee, it’s so fun to visit! now that’s staying in character -)
It’s a great town. We haven’t been there since fire destroyed a couple of building downtown.
