MEMORY ALLEY

by Richard Schnap

The black-walled dive
With the beer-stained rug
Is now a restaurant
Serving overpriced meals

And the famous club
Run by an ex-con
Is now a faceless bar
Like a hundred others

And the one with the bleachers
Overlooking the stage
Is now a dealership
Selling foreign cars

And my leather jacket
Is itself now a relic
Along with the noise
That became music.
