The Long Goodbye

There's a long goodbye
and it happens every day, 
when a passerby 
 invites your eye to come away. 
 Even as you smile a quick hello you let her go, 
 you let the moment fly... 
 Too late to turn your head, 
 you know you've said 
 the Long Goodbye...

Chapter One The first goodbye was heartbreaking. From pleasant post-workers to backpacker blandness, featuring framed CBGBs rock royalty, sparkling wine in 70s Rod Stewart glassware, coffee-scented porter, plectrum food tickets, enormous pepperoni pizza, disorienting toilet corridors leading to surprised Vietnamese kitchens, DJ playing Hunters and Collectors and Pink Floyd on Serato, DJ Al Fresco's doppelganger, and cigarettes in a piss-stained back alley. Stout's whiskey bar with sparkling, German IPA, whiskey and Skrillex aircon followed.

Chapter Two Alice Thai, bleak weather, Eurovision and green curries, delightful!

Chapter 3 Thank you to the dear 5s, 4s, 3s and interloper 6 for the morning's almond-meal chocolate cake, strawberries and cream, delicious!

Chapter 4 So fantastic as if you were there. So close as if it was tangible (sic)

Please note: Some of shows involve intense shaking,so Children should be under super vision of their parents,and please be prudent for purchasing tickets for pregnant women, or people with high blood pressure or heart disease (sic) 

Regretfully cancelled.

 

  Chapter 5 (pending) A pleasing afternoon green tea, the last hurrah.
