Inspiration: Tom Waits' song Cemetery Polka
Character: Auntie Mame
_____
Auntie Mame stood in the doorway of the old Grand Hotel. She looked like a movie star from a forgotten era in her fur coat and pearls. Today she had one of those old fashion hats with the netting veil pulled down over her eyes. It was pinned to the side of her head covering her shiny white hair.
She scowled telling you to 'go to hell' as you handed her the small brown paper bag with breakfast in it.
You'd smile. Passing her the paper cup with coffee. 'Creamer's in the bag' you'd say.
She'd try not to smile.
