Appearances
Marble floors, counter polished,
Fine picture hanging over the decanters cut glass, silver water coolers.
Pictured punch bowls, high priced liquors.
Customers pull off their gloves and take up the glasses and click them and with immaculate pocket handkerchief wipe their mouth and go upstairs or into the reading room and complete extensive bargains.
Here it is, the restaurant.
All sorts of vians, but chiefly all styles of beverage.
They who frequent this place have fairly started on the downgrade.
Having drunk once they lounge at the corner of the bar until a friend comes up, and then the beverage is repeated.
After a while they sit at the little table by the wall and order a rarer wine.
For they feel richer now, and able to get almost anything.
Towards bedtime they take out their watch and say they must go home.
They start, but cannot stand straight.
With the gentleman at each arm, they start up the street.
More and more overcome, the man begins to whoop, and shout, and swear, and refuse to go any farther.
Pat falls off.
Hair gets over his eyes.
Door bell of fine house rings.
Wife comes down the stairs, daughters look over the banisters, sobbing in the dark hall.
Quick, shut the front door, for I do not want to look in.
God help them.
