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?πŸ˜‰

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
