Ode on a supper club

Wood panels, fake bricks, dim lights, frosted glass
Padded horseshoe bar, cushy pleather stools
Cigarette vending machine

Brandy old fashioned sour, rocks glass, maraschino cherry
Pickle garnish, olive garnish, mushroom garnish
Blatz, Schlitz, Old Milwaukee

5pm rush
Order at the bar, shake of the day
Table numbers on table tents

Baskets of sleeves of breadsticks and crackers
Choice of cheese spreads
Hot bacon dressing

Fried fish, fried mushrooms, fried frog legs, fried cheese
Prime rib king cut, prime rib queen cut
Twice-baked potatoes

At the country crossroads
Getting dressed up means
The Packers shirt without a grease stain
