The Barfolk


The Barfolk

Sitting alone and bored.
Watching the people drink.
The barfolk in a frenzy,
Not a second to think.
Pouring this, pouring that.
Drink out of hand & money in.
Taking orders for food, "Was,
That a burger with onion rings?"
But, as the people slowly leave,
And the bar empties out,
All that is left - dregs of beer,
Wine, spirits and stout.
Without the hustle and bustle,
Of the regulars and blow ins.
The barfolk wander aimlessly around,
Waiting for the next lot to flow in.
And when they come,
Which surely they will,
The barfolk will liven up,
And readily fill the till.
