I think this would make a great poem to "workshop," swapping out your own place-words to achieve a new feel.
Great Jones Wide Awake Now
dreamlife at
the great jones café
was more bar
than chow
more smoke
than booze
more t.v.
than jukebox
more motel
than barstool
now & then
a regular escaped
more sparrow
than keepsake
the rest of us
were hammered
into place
more vinegar
than oil
more fencepost
than jailbreak
April De Nonno
