TO THE BONE: T-Bone Talks ‘Bout Them Gals
“Once a while T-Bone H, a long time resident of Bangkok files his inside skinny on a guy just getting along middle of all this stuff. And he always finishes with one of his fine poems.
Bangkok Bar Girls
You’ve heard about’em…and you have met a few guys who have been there and actually met ’em! Whoaaaaaa! Wait a minute. Should you go? Why not? It’s only a 17-hour ‘plane ride from the US. Twenty four little hours including airport time.
So in one day, ONE day you too could be in the Land of Smiles!
You figured it out. There are about 62 million people in Thailand. About 12 million ( give or take a mill or 2) in Bangkok.
Everybody knows there are more females then males. So let’s say seven million females in Bangkok. OK, about two million married, two million have boyfriends or are gay, one million not really attractive to you because of appearance (sorry), age, (sorry, or what ever, (not sorry).
That leaves one million just right, hard working, trying to get ahead, had back luck with and are fed up with Thai men, girls, needing a farang (Westerner) just like you.
Yes, that’s one million Bangkok Bar Girls just WAITING for you!
Now we’re talking!
So when people ask you…”Why are you going clear over there?”
Isn’t Hawaii closer? It has beaches. Doesn’t the Carribbean have hundreds of islands? Isn’t Central America so cheap? Why would you want to go half way around the world?
Just smile and say…’Bangkok Bar Girls’!
AND THE POEM…
Bangkok Bar Girls
Muted joys using girls for toys
I try to use
Someone else’s muse
Stunted memories
While the music plays on
Nana Plaza is the place we belong
The darkest eyes that never cry
Lips begging to be kissed
That never lie
Expats as gamblers we play the game
They pretend to love us
And we can’t even say their names
Lives and hearts they’re always stealing
But with a few Baht in our hands
They’re so damn appealing
