Cafe Locked Out
The narrative.
Is a creature of perspective
Bred of brothel income
Gambling debts
And Ponzi schemes
With a dash of fair enterprise mixed in to give it a certain pedigree.
Look here and watch her trot
Plot and prance about
Casting a seed of doubt
As she steals the limelight and admiration of a thousand punters clutching their fists hoping for a payout.
And where she frolics, cash follows
So the punters follow too
Dazzled and grim
Hoping for the big win
Hooked on dopamine and cheap gin
How the narrative continues to spin
And so it spins.
Even when she trips and stumbles
Or breaks her leg and tumbles
Is set on fire
Struck by lightning
Poisoned with arrows dipped in the venon of toxic toads
They watch on with their clenched fists
Pissed and yet desperately hopeful
That the narrative will find its feet
And sprint to meet
The finish line in first, second and third place
A complete trifecta.
