Fascinating piece. Beautifully-crafted, detailed descriptions of a surreal setting and an

enigmatic character, if you will, the woman at the bar. As I was reading this I kept thinking of the word "magical" and of Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Anyway, you left me wondering. Was this a fantasy? And if it wasn't, did you get the ayahuasca?😉

Thanks for the read. Garcia Marquez's magical style was in my purview when I wrote this. I definitely wanted the reader to start questioning what's real as the story unfolds. Cheers

Your descriptions are always such a delight. I really enjoyed this one — “Taken aback, I give my best Humphrey Bogart smile and try to will my sweat glands to grind to a halt. No such luck.”
