Arrival time: 10:15 a.m.
Windy, chilled to the bone
Shivering a bit
1000s of pilgrims in line
With coolers of cheer
To get them through the wait
**********
Gates open at 11:00
Roar goes up from the crowd
Friends, old and new
Passing the time together
“So much for the improved
Lines over last year”
Getting warmer, not
Shivering but still windy
Closer to the front means
Two hours have gone by
In a line waiting to buy
Three Floyds Dark Lord
Russian Style Imperial Stout
Says the label on the
Bottle from Munster
Indiana’s famed brewery
**********
Purchase time: 2:00 p.m.
Hour on the clock, plus
Some minutes later
Dark Lord was in a box
Bought and paid for
By one pilgrim that will
Not make the pilgrimage
Again
Thank you. for this post
Brilliant post. I’m jealous that you were one of the fortunate to have purchased a box.
