"My Lover, My Friend, My Mortality, All Has Come to Accuse Me in My Decay"
by Ivan Faute
She drinks crushed rose petals with vodka, over ice. It has such a nice pink color. Oh what joy it is to order in a dank, smoky bar while rock and roll plays on the jukebox!
The bartender, with his snaky arms covered in tattoos, flashes the glasses up and down.
