Hens Tail Happy Hour
Ruechari's Kit Kat staff worked hard and steady.
The hotel was almost ready.
Tru was tuning his guitar
One eye checking O'Boyle
busy behind the bar
Mixing lemons and soda water
Into bottles on the counter
"Why Sir are you making lemonade?
It's whiskey and beer that gets the rent paid."
Tru said,
"Opening night is a big night."
O'Boyle smiled and replied,
"And I heard this Paris notion
of a new potion.
How they mix spirits and soda pop.
I kid you not.
They call it Hens tails.
Apparently popular with the females.
O'Boyle turned checked his hair in the mirror.
"I do declare that's the eighth time in the hour,"
Tru said true
"you been checking yourself in that mirror."
"Opening night,
just want everything to be just right."
O'Boyle smiled fixing his hair.
Tru leaned back on his chair,
"Opening night is that your reasoning?"
Tru asked his guitar romantically strumming.
O'Boyle smiled
And lied
"Ain't doing it to impress no girl.
This is all for the boss Rue
now if you don't mind guitar man
I've work to do."
O'Boyle hurried outside
with the opening night banner to unfurl.
"All for the boss Rue-"
Tru gave his guitar a playful twirl
"Who outlaw, is a girl."
