The building spilled out of itself like boiled fat, spreading its mess on the ridge of the golf green; crashed arbor waves melt off of the levees chain linked seas are stapled to fields, + the mouths of the hills are forced open w/ fence posts as kidnapped stones catch burns from cigars. Park in the gravel, take the back path to the workers door, paneled walls dappled w/ dots of sloshed beer foam hunting lodge wallpaper, dust in the cups of trophies + front door's a padded jaw pulled from the asylum. You rush to swab rainwater off of furled decksets + sweep 'round the ribs of the felt eraser carpets, but you know the front door window will fill up w/ faces before you've even taken chairs down from stained tables. The punch drunk outmates are trying to break back in + they'll drag their clubs like corpses + fill the floor w/ chlorophyll, grab tables by the waist + dig ruts in the patio, familiar song of screeching legs routinely sung off-key. Feast @ the edge of the emerald ocean thoroughly traversed, they stretch across the tables to clap @ sunburnt shoulders, + their sailors knot knuckles will clutch steins like crosses as hot sauce slicked fingers coat waitresses in stains.
