At the sushi bar
I want to close my eyes
Because the darkness
Of my mind
Is more interesting
Than the sake bottles
Arranged in order of height
On the glass shelves
But I wonder whether
The bartender will judge me
I’m dressed well enough
To not seem
So crazy
But still the stigma
Against a man alone
With his eyes closed
At the bar
Persists
But what’s the worst
That can happen
