Every Bar.

Every Bar 

by james Bezerra

Friday nights

desert downtown

Yuma refracts

all sound.

Bar music

wouldn't even

be worth

the bother

when heat

stifles day-life,

becomes resonate

echoing off

narrow streets,

artificial adobe

government buildings,

sweat bodies.

At least

this bar

is an

Every Bar.

All towns

have this

dark, locals

sticky bar.

Air this

pregnant, humid

makes here

glow loud

with sound.
