The Melancholy or Jersey Diner

Halogen lights splayed whitish bland
as eyes cast glances through hazy strands
of cigarette smoke and hollow jokes
that echoed the sentiments of which she spoke.
Idle minds sat idly by,
like cherubs in a stormy sky,
eating food and poision drinks
dreaming up conversations to overthink.
Waitress floated through the pressure cooker,
body of a saint, face of hooker,
pleasing patrons' shallow wants
with day old coffee and stale croissants.
He talked with her in this nocturnal hour,
lolita's daughter with feigning flower,
hoping for forbidden thrill,
a lady lover with Clearasil.
Life has long since left this place,
left it a cold, unforgiving space,
come and eat, with waitress Holly.
Lose your soul, at the Melancholy.
