Ok, so it seems you own, or at least drive, a perfect Mustang. [car or horse? ] but i want to know MORE about the reptiles. T. Rex? or some of the 'less-known': Psittacosaurus, Shantungosaurus, & Therizinosaurus And those who drink coffee? bri :)

I'll be honest I saw Dinosaurs and I couldn't resist I have two young boys self explanatory..but I was pleasantly surprised because the content appealed to me more. Mustang and pool table I should break into song..These are a few of my favourite things ... :)

That perfect Mustang- may it forever take people back to their youth be it in the 20's,30's,40's.50's,60's,70's,80's,90's, and the 2000's. Your poem incites dreams of beaded dresses swinging to the Charleston, poodle skirts swinging to the do-wops, mini-skirts twisting.... and of course, the ice cream parlors and the pool halls and the roller skating rinks.... seniors in high school turning into senior citizens but always dreaming of that perfect Mustang. Love this piece. 10 of course

Thank you so much, Susan. Indeed there is a dream quality to the place. There's a giant painting of James Dean over one of the tables. It isn't kitsch, or something new. It looks like it hasn't been touched in decades. And the atmosphere does seem to attract and accommodate seniors of every type. I think you'd have a great time were you to visit the place. Thanks so much for reading, and for the insightful comments.
