The bartender served me and then allowed me to read some of my spoken word poetry to the rest of the bar which was well received. the ceramic lights reminded me of Berlin where i lived and wrote two unpublished novels years ago and the overall aesthetic was minimal like my loft in west end. 1/Urinal cake program, caroma...
