Ladies, Time.

Two birds chatter.
Drifting off
into the blue.
Hopping on
telephone lines.
Beaks hovering,
over lagers and wines.
Floating
… sideways,
,sdrawkcab semitemos
into bars.
Ladies, time!


David Bath

Ladies, Time. by

About two women out for a drink or three.

‘Bird’ is slang for woman and ‘time’ is what bartenders shout when the bar closes and you can’t order anymore drinks, but it might also be said if the bartender thinks a patron has had one too many.
