Been There

Out in back of a closed cafe
Next to the airport
By the old highway
Inside the sign less rooms
Of a brown motel
What stories these water stained tiles could tell

Theres a teen age girl
With her Asian mother
A casual socialite
Dropping in for another

Thers a Spanish lady
With no picture I.D.
She can't speak any English
But she's in for free

The lady who brought her
Laughs out loud
As she adjusts her jewelry
And Assesses the crowd

Theres lots of young girls
With boyfriends in tow
And there are hard quiet women
Whos feelings dont show

A nurse calls their names
And they are led out the door
There is someone complaining
It wasnt this long before

I feel like a foreigner
I am here with a friend
Whos guy was to busy
To watch it all end.
