The Invisible Stage

I used to love bars. I really used to love bars. Laughing, watching, deep talking, drinking. Now I'm finally realizing the obvious fact that a bar is simply a group of people waiting for something to happen. It's like going to a theatre with no stage. Sitting for hours waiting for the invisible curtain to open and reveal a great comedrama. But the curtain is never raised, the lights may fade, but insignificantly, and the actors are the crowd themselves. It's really all very lonely and sad to watch through those glasses. But it is still fun to watch.
