The glowing lights paint long shadows on the faces huddled around cluttered tables. Every swig of bitter liquor is a slurp at forgetting, a fleeting escape from the reality that haunts them outside these dim walls. They come here to forget their woes, seeking solace in the murmurs of strangers who get it. But the booze can only cover the emptiness for so long. The dreams, they're shattered, forgotten like beer cans on the floor. And tomorrow? Tomorrow, the struggle starts all over again.
